The Costa Blanca / Valencia / Alicante Province region
The Costa Blanca is situated on the south east coast of mainland Spain and is renowned for it's sandy white beaches and warm all year long Mediterranean climate. Many people looking for a holiday in Torrevieja and nearby areas on the Costa Blanca in Spain are foregoing the usual package holiday arrangement and are now finding that they can do better by going independently which is why Torrevieja and the nearby areas are popular. There are no package tours in this area. Torrevieja is a popular place for English-speaking people to take a holiday.
The beaches at Torrevieja include Playa los Locos, Playa del Cura, Playa Naufragos and Playa del Acequion, all along the coast of Torrevieja town.
There's also some more good beaches south of Torrevieja at La Florida Cabo Roig and La Zenia and if you go a few minutes north of Torrevieja, you'll find the excellent beaches of La Mata, (which is also called Torrelamata) and Guardamar del Segura, both also win the Blue flag awards every year for their cleanliness, safety and facilities etc.
Torrevieja is one of the fastest growing towns in Spain, but Torrevieja has not got the ugly high rise skyscrapers like Benidorm, or package holiday hotels, Torrevieja is an ideal place for family holidays. Torrevieja is surrounded by two large and beautiful natural salt water lakes which form the "Salinas de Torrevieja" and are an official Spanish nature reserve. These lakes attract a wide variety of bird life.
The entire area around Torrevieja and Orihuela are famous for their salt production. Huge salt lakes surround the road down from Alicante airport to Torrevieja. There are two large natural saltwater lagoons, known as "las Salinas", the largest in Europe. The concentration of salt in these picturesque lagoons helps to draw the moisture out of the air. This, combined with the very low annual rainfall, creates the unique microclimate with low humidity. With most days being sunny, and with an average temp of 18 degrees centigrade, make this area ideal for sufferers of rheumatism, arthritis and asthma.
The city of Torrevieja which gets its name from an old tower (old=vieja ; tower=torre), was first mentioned around 1800. It became famous in 1802, when it took over the salt administration from Orihuela. Apart from the salt industry, tourism and fishing keep the city alive. The harbour gives home to 300 fishing ships and over 900 private sports boats. A wonderful view, especially when the sun sets.
The weather in Torrevieja makes it an ideal location for year round holiday activities - especially if you want to fulfil that yearning to get away during those dark, dreary winter months to the sunnier parts of Europe.
On average, Torrevieja enjoys 320 days of sunshine per year and an average daily temperature of 18°C. Temperatures in July and August are typically 30°C. Many people prefer the months April, May, June, September, October and November.
