Destination Profile

Book Costa Blanca and you will arrive at one of Spain's most popular and diverse holiday destinations. Rich in heritage and culture many parts are still typically Spanish (quite surprising with the influx of British tourists).

Costa Blanca means white coast, the name is apt due to its long sandy beaches stretching all the way from the northern Town of Denia to Torreveija in the south. The northern area is mountainous and with scattered orange groves, olives trees and almond and cherry orchards visible from afar. The southern region is flatter and drier with the Europe's largest palm gardens and salt flats.

Located on Spain's south east coast lies the popular resort of Benidorm. Although it is known for being one of Spain's liveliest resorts and there is no doubting that holidays to Benidorm are largely about non-stop fun it also plays host to two of the Med's finest sandy beaches and the winding cobbled streets of the old town offer a taste of traditional Spanish life.

The old town in Altea still has cobbled streets and is overlooked by a domed blue and white church.
