Information, accommodation and maps
Alicante
Alicante is a port city located on the eastern coast of Spain, in the Valencian Community. It is known for its pleasant Mediterranean climate, golden sandy beaches, and vibrant cultural life. Overlooked by the Castle of Santa Bárbara, perched atop Mount Benacantil, Alicante blends history and modernity. Its old town, known as the Santa Cruz neighborhood, stands out for its narrow streets, colorful houses, and panoramic views. The Explanada de España, a seafront promenade decorated with mosaics, is an iconic spot perfect for a seaside stroll. Alicante is also famous for its festivals, such as the Bonfires of Saint John, and for its excellent Mediterranean cuisine.
