Costa Blanca

Spain's Costa Blanca lies on the East side of the country, with mountainous landscapes and fabulous beaches stretching over 200 km along the sea. Benidorm is its most popular destination, offering sparkling waters, fine sands beaches, historical sites, watersports and nightlife. There are many other lovely towns to stay in or visit on the Costa Blanca as well. To get a taste of Medieval Spain, head into the ruggedly beautiful interior and visit some of the Costa Blanca's smaller towns. Alicante is the region's capital, located on a bay overlooking the sea. It has many shops, cafes, historical places of interest, a yacht harbour and the airport for the Costa Blanca region.
