Stretching from Denia in the north to Torrevieja in the south, the Costa Blanca welcomes thousands of visitors every year thanks to its pleasant climate and year-round sunshine, lively resorts and over 120 miles of coastline. Also known as the White Coast, holidays here are mainly focused around beach life. Expect white sandy shores with azure waters and plenty of bars, restaurants, children’s activities and water sports on offer, as well as good public transport links around the region for beach-hopping. Further inland, if you want a slower pace, you can explore small villages like Altea, which offers numerous cafes, craft shops, galleries and tapas bars.
