About the area

This part of the Costa Blanca is a very popular area with people from all over Europe, particularly Brits – many of its coastal towns and villages have more than half their population from outside Spain. Away from its forty miles of coastline there’s loads to do including golfing, hiking and visiting historical sites – and even though it’s a lot busier – unsurprisingly – in the summer months, there’s still loads to do here all year round!
