Costa Blanca refers to towns from Denia to Torrevieja and a centre of tourism industry for many decades now. It belongs to the Alicante Province and has 200 kilometers coastline. Alicante city is the major city and capital city of Costa Blanca though Benidorm is getting more of the spotlight in terms tourism.
If you are looking for secluded beaches and out of the beaten track tourist destinations then this place is not for you. Costa Blanca has a lively, friendly and festive air as tourist walk to and fro. Restaurants and bar and filled with tourists from all over the world that you could not helped but noticed the cheerful camaraderie between the place and the tourist and between tourists themselves. In fact, it would be very hard to find Costa Blanca accommodation starting July. So booking your accommodation and activities long before the summer months is best suggested.
Though, Costa Blanca has undergone so many changes to accommodation the millions of tourist that flocked to this Spanish Coast, it has preserved some of its heritage- the fishing village. Before sunbathing and frolicking in Costa Blanca beaches perhaps you want to visit Altea and Xabia to get a glimpse of the past through these villages.
Castell de Santa Barbara is a very magnificent castle in 400 BC which built by the Carthaginians. What makes this very beautiful in my eyes it the features that accompany this castle. Perhaps get a first experience in tunnels, drawbridges, cisterns and moats.
Museo de Arte del Siglo XX Asegurada is another must-see for museum connoisseur. Old ages do not mean fewer splendors; the reverse is true here in Costa Blanca. The oldest building in Plaza de Santa Maria has the most modern art collection that any culture lovers would really love.
Costa Blanca, Spain is a joy to behold.
