Why go to Costa Blanca

If it’s the ultimate sun, sea and sand experience you’re after, you can’t beat a Costa Blanca holiday. Spain’s spectacular White Coast undulates south from the relaxed beach resort of Denia, taking in legendary nightlife hub Alicante and the bright lights of Benidorm en-route. Costa Blanca is a sizzling smorgasbord of powdery sand beaches, traditional towns and lively resorts, with accommodation on offer for every budget and plenty to do for the whole family.

Beautiful beaches

Costa Blanca holidays are all about relaxing and soaking up the sunshine.

The area is famous for its perfectly groomed beaches and swimmable seas, with the immaculate expanses of Playa de Levante, Playa de San Juan and Playa de la Fossa offering acres of sand for sun-seekers to enjoy.

Committed tanaholics can get an all-over glow at nudist cove Cala Ambolo – and then there’s the lively urban atmosphere of city beaches such as Alicante’s Playa del Postiguet and buzzy Playa del Albir.

Crammed with family-friendly activities

The dizzying range of all-inclusive Costa Blanca holidays in 2023 makes this a popular destination with families.

If you can drag yourself away from the hotel pool on family holidays to the Costa Blanca then there are endless activities on offer, from tiger spotting at Aitana Safari (Carretera CV-785) to horse trekking around Lo Rufete Adventure Park (Ctra. Torrevieja – Orihuela) and watching dolphin displays at marine paradise Mundomar (C. Sierra Helada).

The Costa Blanca even has one of Spain’s largest water parks: Benidorm’s Aqualandia, which extends over a mega 150,000 square metres. Boredom, what boredom?

Shopping, eating and nightlife

The Costa Blanca offers up plenty of fun for those without nippers in tow as well.

Benidorm’s Old Town is bursting with pavement cafes, British-style pubs and tapas joints, while Alicante’s ‘el Barrio’ area rivals Ibiza for world-class nightlife.

Calpe is renowned for its packed calendar of festivals and fiestas, Jávea attracts a classy clientele with its beachside cocktail bars, and Torrevieja is a shopaholic’s paradise.

The abundance of package deals and cheap holidays to Costa Blanca destinations mean that it’s never been easier to enjoy everything the region has to offer.

Luxury Costa Blanca holidays

While cheap holidays to Costa Blanca resorts are a major draw, the area also has a more opulent side.

Denia is fast becoming a gastronomic hub, and the constellation of five-star hotels scattered along the coast caters for luxury-loving travellers.

The urban areas of Alicante and Benidorm also offer a great range of luxury all-inclusive Costa Blanca holidays, with sumptuous spas, golf courses and fine dining among the top facilities.

The best bit? With so many competitively priced Costa Blanca package deals on offer, you can enjoy a lavish holiday in 2023 on a shoestring budget.

What to do in Costa Blanca

Events for your diary

For a true taste of local culture, time your visit to coincide with the Bonfires of San Juan in late June. This quirky festival sees the streets of Alicante taken over by floats, markets and fireworks, culminating in a giant bonfire during which dozens of giant effigies are burned.
