Visiting Spain is not only about sun, great cuisine, and a warm welcome, but also its rich monumental heritage and dazzling natural environment. There is a perfect destination for everyone.

Alicante is the Valencian Region’s southernmost province, its entire length of shoreline (the Costa Blanca or, literally, White Coast)caressed by the Mediterranean’s soothing sea breeze. Warm sandy beaches and curving dunes lie interspersed between sheer stretches of cliff and rugged coast, shading the local geography in hues of white, blue, ochre and green.

This is one of Spain’s leading tourist Meccas, and thanks to its scenery, facilities, the quality of its towns and warm friendliness of its people, Alicante is host all year round to intense tourist activity,attending to visitors’ needs with pleasing efficiency.

The Costa Cálida extends along 250 kilometers (155 miles)from the beach of Carolina in Águilas a few kilometers from the province of Almería, to the beach of El Mojón on the boundary with Alicante.

This stretch of Murcian coastline, blessed with 315 days of sunshine a year and an average temperature of 17 degrees Centigrade (63 °F), is shared by two seas: the Mar Menor, the largest natural pool in the world and a paradise for all types of water sports, and the Mediterranean with its spacious beaches of fine sand and varied landscapes.
