About the Costa Blanca South

This is a beautiful coastline, boasting some of the best EEC blue flag beaches in Europe all with blue transparent waters. The wonderful climate allows you to enjoy the varying types of beaches from long stretches of fine sand, to bays with rugged cliffs, to sand dunes all year round.

Inland are important marshlands and salt lagoons serving as habitats for numerous protected species including the Flamingo and Montagu’s Harrier. These large lagoons dating back to the 12th century are currently amongst the most important in Europe.

As well as providing a sanctuary for wildlife the salt lagoons draw moisture out of the atmosphere creating a uniquely dry microclimate. The salt lagoons are attributed in helping to improve the conditions of people suffering from arthritis, asthma and rheumatism. The waters of the lagoon are also rumoured to have curative properties and it is not uncommon to see people bathing in them.

Served by two major International airports (Alicante and Murcia), both within two hours flight time from the UK, an excellent motorway network, express coach services, and good train services, this unique area is not only one of the prettiest areas of Spain but also one of the easiest to get to.



Known as the ‘Market Garden of Europe’ the Costa Blanca South is one of the gastronomic centres of Spain.
Its plentiful daily markets display a staggering and mouth watering array of fresh fish, meats and every conceivable variety of fruit and vegetables.

With bustling fishing villages, numerous marinas, many bars and restaurants, an excellent range of top class golf clubs and other sporting facilities, and a thoroughly modern infrastructure the southern Costa Blanca really does offer paradise to everyone.
