The Costa Blanca / Valencia / Alicante Province region
The beautiful Costa Blanca or 'White Coast' as it is often referred to for its lovely white sandy beaches extends along the eastern coast of Spain (approximately in the middle) and covers the province of Alicante.
This area is not as cold or wet in the winter as the Costa Brava which is north of the Costa Blanca region, nor is it as humid or hot in the summer as the Costa del Sol, in the south. The Costa Blanca region has the best all year round temperaturesand the climate here is recognised as one of the best in the world by the World Health Organisation.
It has over 100 kms of sandy beaches and rocky coves and many of the beaches have the coveted European Blue Flag signifying cleanliness and safe bathing.
Alicante airport is the largest in the region and has a large number of flights arriving daily, especially from Northern Europe. Further south but closer to Playa Flamenca is the smaller Murcia airport. With the advent of many low-cost airlines & with flying time being only approx 2 hours away many people now visit this region of Spain for long weekends.
Southern Costa Blanca is mostly flat with fine sandy beaches, palm trees and salt lakes and is much drier and more typical of what a person who had never visited Spain would expect to see.
It has something for everyone from tiny rural inland villages to cosmopolitan tourist resorts on the coast such as Benidorm, Alicante & Torrevieja. Whilst it isn't necessarily a place full of historical monuments (although there are many), it's main attractions lie in it's beautiful amazing vivid blue Mediterranean waters & lovely sandy beaches. Add to this the old towns and villages with their narrow streets, restaurants and bars where one can sit and relax outside due to the wonderful all-year round climate. It is simply a wonderful place in which to enjoy life and to feel rejuvenated and refreshed. I'm sure if you try it once you will love it and come back for more.
Torrevieja area / Playa Flamenca area
Playa Flamenca offers a good selection of restaurants & bars to suite all tastes and age groups. As this area has a large population of British home-owners it makes it an ideal location for family holidays. Playa Flamenca has 2 local blue flag beaches with many more available within a short walk or drive. A few minutes walking distance from the complex, there is the very popular large Saturday Street Market which sells a wide variety of Souvenirs, Leather goods, Clothes, Pottery, & Hot Roast Chickens & fresh Fruit & Veg. It is open from 8 a.m - 2.p.m approx.
Torrevieja is a thriving coastal fishing resort with a wide variety of waterfront bars/restaurants, & street cafes. There is a beautiful walkway jutting out into the sea which has splendid views of the newly redesigned Marina. On the outskirts of Torrevieja there is the Aquapolis Water Park & a vibrant city nightlife provided by international clubs such as Pacha.
There are plenty of shops, a large Carrefour Hypermarket & the new modern Habeneras shopping Mall. Also close by is the Ozone Leisure Centre which includes a ten- pin bowling alley + lots more restaurants/bars & shops. This provides plenty of entertainment suitable for all age groups whilst still retaining Torrevieja's original charm as a fishing village.
