Alicante, the capital of the sun

Alicante is the capital of the Costa Blanca. This modern and cosmopolitan city has a great economic, commercial and tourist activity. Bathed by the Mediterranean Sea, the idyllic climate enjoyed in Alicante is perfect for being on the beach and sunbathing all year round.

Next to its spectacular Marina and its Royal Racing Club we find the emblematic Paseo de la Explanada de España. Punctuated by four rows of palm trees, we are struck by the floor, which is made up of thousands of red, cream and blue marble tiles that symbolize the waves of the Mediterranean Sea. In Alicante we find green spaces and beautiful gardens such as:

  • the Paseo de Canalejas or the Plaza Gabriel Miró with impressive centennial ficuses
  • El Palmeral, ideal to have fun with your children
  • The Morant that includes an auditorium for concerts, performances, ...

The Barrio de Santa Cruz is the old part of the city. It stands on the slopes of Monte Benacantil which is located in the centre of the city. Strolling through its narrow and steep streets with its whitewashed houses will transport you to another era. You will love the facades of their houses full of pots with brightly coloured flowers. The majestic Santa Bárbara Castle, a fortress of great strategic value built in the 9th century, stands on the top of this mountain from where spectacular views can be seen. Its access is very comfortable as it has an elevator located on the Postiguet Beach.

Alicante offers you an extensive shopping area and a great offer of leisure and fun. You will find a wide variety of shopping malls, department stores and elite stores where you can buy the latest fashion trends and the most exclusive brands. You will love going to “bailar al puerto” until dawn or enjoy its typical “tardeo”, an extensive leisure area, pubs, cafes, bars… with large terraces where people gather in the after-hours until high early morning hours.

 The Hogueras de San Juan will thrill you. They are held in mid-June, to welcome the summer by burning artistic wooden and cardboard monuments on the night of San Juan. The whole city takes to the streets decked out for fun, dancing in the Barracas, watching shows, parades, ...

Alicante is also positioned as an interesting cultural city. The Teatro Principal offers a varied program of general interest. Among its many museums we highlight the Archaeological Museum (MARQ) and the Museum of Contemporary Art (MACA). You cannot miss visiting its interesting Ibero-Roman city: "Lucentum". Other places of interest are Casa Carbonell (1922) and the Basilica of Santa María, considered the oldest in the city. It dates from the 14th century and was built on an Islamic mosque.

The charming beaches of Alicante will captivate you

Alicante has an extensive coastline of attractive beaches with different characteristics. The Postiguet Beach, fully integrated into the urban core, is the most popular. Throughout the year we find swimmers practicing water sports, sunbathing, practicing sports on the sand, doing tai-chi, ... This beautiful beach, with golden sands and calm waters, contrasts with the 13 kilometers of small coves of rock and sand of the Cabo de las Huertas. Among its most outstanding coves we find Los Cantarales, Los Judíos, Palmera, El Saladar, ... some of them with nudist sections. Located on the outskirts of the urban core, Cabo de Las Huertas is a high-end residential area where luxury villas with sea views are common.

The wide and extensive Playa de San Juan with seven kilometres in length, the Playa de Urbanova or the picked-up Playa de La Albufereta with its Marina, are located in areas considered second homes, with modern private residential apartments, bungalows and townhouses.
