Alicante and the surrounding area
Alicante is a large, vibrant city with something for everyone. It boasts long white sandy beaches, has a large Marina, many restaurants, pavement cafes, bars and nightclubs, a vast array of shops to suit all tastes and budgets, and places of historic interest such as El Castillo de Santa Barbara. The castle sits high on a hill offering spectacular views across the city.
From Alicante Marina boat trips run all along the Costa Blanca. One popular trip is to the Isla de Tabarca, 17km off the coast. The Island boasts secluded beaches and is ideal for snorkelling. You can even take a trip in a yellow submarine!
The museo de la Asegurada was formerly a prison but today this imposing 17th century building houses a collection of 20th century art including works by Spanish greats Picasso and Dali.
El Barrio in the centre of the city is the throbbing heart of Alicante’s nightlife. You can party until the morning here in a vibrant Latin atmosphere.
Alicante’s largest fiesta is Festival de Sant Joan which runs for one week in late June of each year. Alicante becomes engulfed with street processions of floats bearing satirical figures made of wood and papier mache. The festival climaxes with a massive fireworks display over the Marina and the burning of all the floats.
Elsewhere on the Costa Blanca the picturesque towns of Villa Joyosa and Calpe are easy to reach. Both are beautiful places to visit for a day and soak up the Spanish Culture.
25km inland from the coast is Guadalest. This mountain top village dates back centuries. There are fantastic views across the valley and reservoir and many gift shops. Nearby are the Fonts d’Algar (Algar Falls) – Magnificent waterfalls and mountain springs cascade into wonderful pools, where, at certain times you can take a dip and cool off.
Those who enjoy the thrills and fun of theme and water parks should head north to the outskirts of Benidorm. Terra Mitica and Terra Natura are both popular theme parks whilst Aqualandia guarantees a day of water rides and splashes. Mundomar (Seaworld) has many attractions; the most popular with visitors is the dolphin show, where you can have your photo taken with one of the dolphins.
