The Costa Blanca in Spain, or White Coast, runs along the Mediterranean coast in the province of Alicante. There are two distinct parts to it, the north has a range of mountains running parallel to the sea, descending at times to form cliffs and to the south vast sand beaches, stretches of palm trees and salt deposits.

Temperatures are usually mild with an annual average of 17 degrees centigrade. The mountainous region has a higher rainfall than the lowlands around Elche and Orihuela.

Along the coast are towns and villages such as Denia, Cabo de San Antonio, Javea, Moraira, Calpe, Altea, Benidorm, Santa Pola, Guardamar del Segura and Torrevieja not forgetting the pretty island of Tabarca. Inland routes take you through the mountains and plains of historical Elche, Orihuela and Alcoy.

While in the Costa Blanca watch out for the many local and ancient festivals and celebrations such as the Moors and the Christians (Moros y Cristianos) which commemorates the Reconquest of Moorish Spain by the Catholic King & Queen and the Mystery of Elche (Misterio de Elche), a religious celebration of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary. Regional cuisine is also well worth exploring, particularly the variations of rice dishes.

The Costa Blanca is particularly suited to sailing and diving with leisure ports and marinas in all the towns along the coast. The Costa Blanca also boasts a number of fine golf courses, many with frontline golf residential properties available. For children there are three Safari Parks and two Water Parks. Something for everyone!
