Holidays in Costa Blanca
The area and getting around
The Costa Blanca stretches for 170 miles along Spain’s east coast and covers the province of Alicante. Visitors will marvel at the succession of towering sea cliffs, secluded rocky coves and idyllic beaches, gently washed by the warm waters of the Mediterranean Sea. The northernmost part is typically mountainous, with a mixture of pebble and fine sand beaches, and towards the south it is surprisingly green and lush. The Costa Blanca also boasts the best all-year-round temperatures in Spain and its beaches have been awarded the coveted European Blue Flag that guarantees cleanliness and safe bathing. It is also very well connected by rail, air, sea and road! In a hurry to get to your destination? The A7 toll road stretches from north to south along the coast. Want to take it slowly? The toll-free N-332 road runs parallel to the coast, offers scenic views and crosses many picturesque villages. There are also a large number of daily flights into Alicante airport, Valencia airport and Murcia airport further to the south.

The most popular beaches are Granadella in Jávea, Carabassí in Elche, Caleta in Villajoyosa, El Cura in Torrevieja and Levante in Benidorm. Travelling with family and kids? You’ll love the amusement and theme parks, nature hikes, nautical activities, castles, natural caves and many more options that will make your stay unforgettable. Take a glass-bottomed boat ride to the spectacular marine reserve of Isla de Tabarca, an islet close to the seaside town of Santa Pola, and spend a memorable day there. Shop to your heart’s content. Savour the local delicacies at a beachfront grill. Drink some ice-cold horchata in a sidewalk cafe. Take a leisurely stroll along the beautiful palm-lined promenade in the city of Alicante. Go nightclubbing to chill out after a fun-filled day exploring. Still need more reasons to pack a suitcase?
Costa Blanca, a treasure trove of historyBut beyond the sun, sea and sand, the region boasts a rich history that you can discover at your leisure. From its perch high above Benidorm, the blue-and-white-tiled Placa del Castell offers breathtaking views of the beaches and bays below. Or climb the 166 metres (544 feet) above sea level to Santa Barbara Castle for a panoramic lookout over Alicante bay. Originally built in the late 9th century, the castle’s fortress walls are still preserved atop Mount Benacantil and houses a historical museum; you can also visit the archaeological remains of the Bronze Age and dungeon or take a guided castle tour. More into botany? El Palmeral is the largest palm grove in Europe and one of the largest in the world. Walk among the cool shade of its more than 11,000 palm trees, some of which are up to 300 years old!
According to the World Health Organisation, the Costa Blanca has one of the healthiest climates in Europe!
