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.

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.

5. Alicante Golf Course

Marked with a lake in the shape of an “S,” the designer’s initial, there is no doubt that Alicante Golf Course is a source of pride for both Severiano Ballesteros and the people of Alicante. Opened in 1998 to cater to both the increasing numbers of Spanish golf players and the many beachgoers looking for somewhere to play golf between dips in the sea, it now serves as a championship course that is also beloved by amateurs. Bring clubs or rent some and try the ingeniously designed challenges of the greens.
