The sun-baked Costa Blanca is a 170 mile stretch of white sandy blue flagged beaches, bright blue skies, the sparkling Mediterranean on Spain's east coast, centred on Alicante and running from Denia in the north to Mazarrón in the south. It's a wonderful place for a holiday.

There's plenty to do throughout the Costa Blanca

If a fantastic Mediterranean environment was all the Costa Blanca had to offer, it would be enough for most people. But in fact there's plenty more to attract you. For a start, the high-rise town of Benidorm has its own attractions if you are seeking entertainment on a large scale, but it isn't typical of the Costa Blanca.

Up and down the coast there's a huge variety of water sports on offer, from dinghy sailing to kite-surfing. If that's not enough to keep the family amused, there are plenty of other choices, from go-karting, quad bikes, golf, mountain climbing to the massive and thrilling Terra Mitica water theme park.

Fantastic walking - and fascinating villages to explore by car

If your tastes incline more towards the countryside, you will soon discover the other side to the Costa Blanca. Those limestone hills and cliffs pretty soon turn into mountains as you head inland. They provide fantastic walking country, with well-marked paths. One example is a circular route in and literally through the Siena de Bernia, because part of the path is a narrow, low natural tunnel pierced through the actual mountain ridge.
