The Costa Blanca / Valencia / Alicante Province region
The Costa Blanca coast, protected by the Crevillente mountains to the west and with the warm Meditarranean sea on its eastern shores gives the Costa Blanca a perfect winter climate and produces excellent conditions for its agriculture which includes not only world famous Valencian oranges and lemons, but also salad items, artichokes, asparagus and many fruits such as peaches, nectarines, kiwi and many many more.
The south Costa Blanca is also famous throughout Spain for seafood and fish, landed daily at the local ports of Torrevieja, Santa Pola and many others along the coast.
Torrevieja area / Playa Flamenca area
The thriving coastal town of Torrevieja is situated about 30 miles south of Alicante. The main attraction of the area are the salt lakes. 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. The long sunny days, with an average temp of 20 deg. centigrade, make this area ideal for sufferers of Rheumatism, Arthritis and Asthma as well as sun whorshippers!
The beaches are blue flag and contain beach bars in season serving a selection of food, beer and sangria! Flamenca beach is a 20 min walk but you can catch the local beach bus which runs every half hour. For the more energetic there is a local water park, a horse riding centre, go-karts, bike hire and numerous golf courses, the most popular being Villa Martin. There are coastal walks and walks around the local salt lakes. La Manga contains mud baths which is a fun day out and very good for the skin!!
The Saturday market is a must which is only a 5 min walk away. A good place to haggle and buy that leather jacket or shoes.
The local town of Torrevieja is a first class tourist area, in fact one of the fastest growing on the whole of the Costa Blanca. It has a daily street market which is open until the early hours. There are many shops selling a wide range of goods. Torrevieja was the headquarters of one of the most important sailing fleets of the Mediterranean and this history has helped to develop the annual Habanera contest, an international event. Voices from all over Europe meet in Torrevieja to join in the rhythmic, tropical habaneras which originated in the voices of the seamen of Torrevieja on their long journeys trading salt with Cuba.
You will find a good variety of nightlife, with bars, restaurants, shops and discos catering for the young at heart, or you could just sit on the roof terrace watching the stars and drinking the local vino.
