The Costa Blanca / Valencia / Alicante Province region
You will find Playa Flamenca a few kilometres south of the town of Torrevieja which is located in the Spanish region of Alicante on the Costa Blanca. Beautiful sandy beaches, Europe's biggest salt flats bursting with bird life, historic sites and a huge variety of Spanish and international restaurants are just a very few of the reasons to book a holiday here. The town is located at the southern end of the Valencian community and is famous for the two huge saltwater lagoons which surround it. These "Salterns of Torrevieja" are the largest in Europe. The lagoons have been designated as national parks and are an impressive sight, attracting more than 250 bird species including flamingos. The flats have been used for salt production since Roman times and still provide salt for export worldwide.
Torrevieja used to be the home port of the largest fleet of sailing boats in the Mediterranean and still boasts one of Spain's best yacht clubs, with berths for1,500 boats. Torrevieja is a gastronomic paradise with a mouth-watering variety of restaurants of all kinds. Along with the local fresh fish restaurants and typical cuisine of the region you'll find a wealth of international restaurants - Italian, French, German, Chinese, Indian, Mexican, Serbian, Croatian; to name but a few!
In other direction you will find the historic Roman city of Cartegena and the exclusive resort of La Manga on the Mar Menor (little sea). Inland towns of Murcia and Orihuela are also well worth a visit.
