Top places to visit

1. Alicante Harbour

Located in the pristine Costa Blanca, Alicante Harbour is the gateway to the Spanish coast. Since most of the city’s maritime industry moved to Valencia in the 1980s, Alicante Harbour has been given room to redevelop into a tourist destination. Today, Alicante Harbour is a primary port of call for cruise ships, ferries and pleasure craft, bringing 80,000 visitors to the area each year. The harbour’s surrounding streets and main promenade buzzes throughout the day and night, with locals and visitors strolling between restaurants and bars.

2. Llevant Beach

Long-time Benidorm residents, families, couples and partygoers all descend upon the glorious setting of Levante Beach (Playa de Levante). This coastal treasure in one of Spain’s busiest resorts is the ideal place to cool off from the hot summer sun and go swimming in the Mediterranean Sea. Levante Beach is where the sun first shines on the town. Come early to watch the sunrise and stick around to watch the action unfold.

3. Poniente Beach

Hang out with locals and dine at waterfront restaurants at Poniente Beach (Playa de Poniente). Stretching west from the Old Town, Poniente Beach has almost 1.9 miles (3 kilometers) of soft golden sand and warm Mediterranean water to enjoy. The beach’s name derives from the Latin word for setting (or west) and this is where you’ll witness the day’s last moments of sunshine in Benidorm.

Look no further: the centrally located Postiguet Beach is the ideal spot to go for a revitalising swim in the Mediterranean Sea. Situated adjacent to the Alicante Harbour, Postiguet Beach can easily be reached by walking from the city, making it a great spot for a quick dip.

5. Campello Beach

Some of the character of coastal towns along the Costa Blanca has changed due to decades of tourist development, but El Campello has retained its original and authentic charm. El Campello and its beach are a scenic seaside getaway with all its southern Spanish traditions alive and well. Hit the beach for some of the coast’s best watersports or stroll along the fishing harbour and see boats coming in and out of the bay. A wander along the white-sand beach will show you intriguing beachfront architecture and a stress-free way of life perfected by the locals. Visitors to Alicante will find a great family-friendly daytrip on Campello Beach.
