Benidorm and Alicante is like childs play
By : Rob CarltonEverything seems to be ideal when planning your holidays in Benidorm and its surrounding towns. The geographical location between two mountain ranges gives it its fantastic climate; over 356 days of sunshine and comfortable temperatures in winter and beach degrees in summer.
Ever since it was taken over by a clever businessman who could see the possibilities, Benidorm has held the winning position in being the most preferred holiday spot for many singles, retired and families from all over the world, especially from Great Britain, Germany, France and the Scandinavian countries.
There are so many reasonable flights leaving these main places, all arriving at the Alicante airport just about 25 minutes away. With the increase in car hire companies, travelling around is like we said- child's play!
Bathing suits, dancing shoes and much more
With its three kilometre long soft sandy beaches; one along the new promenade in front of nicely kept hotels and lively restaurants catering to the tourist in their native tongues, and the other a little outside the old city hub, your days of relaxation are ready.
Have a full English breakfast sitting at one of many terraced cafes along the Levante beach, a quiet lunch sitting in the tropical gardens at the Grand Hotel Delfin, a midday snack at Cafe de Paris with rich flaky pastries, and either a formal dinner or even more popularl, some tapas (small portions of just about everything you can eat), highly recommendable is El Calpi with fresh seafood tapas.
And to burn up all these delicious calories you can either do all kinds of exciting sports in the sea such as surfing, surfing with a sail, bumping around on the big hot dog or playing some beach tennis with friends. If the day activities are not you favorite, then get ready for the nightlife scene. There are many a discotheque to visit, so you can start out at KU which has been described as a city within a city because it offers everything and two different ambiences of music to see that everyone has a good time. Penelope could be referred to as the most popular one with its inside and outside areas and a barbecue area for late snackers.
If you have always wanted to try your luck in beauty contests or similar, then this is your place.
Travelling Back in Time in Benidorm
Terra Mitica seems to have become synonymous with this growing city. Probably because this theme park, which takes us back to where Spain's civilization began, rewards you with such attractions as the Secrets of the Piramides, the Minotaurus Labyrinth and the Great Odyssey Trip. But the best part is that, almost every year new shows and new attractions are introduced, so if you come back to
Benidorm, you will always be surprised.
The type of shows Terra Mitica outs on include:
Concert of Nina Pastori ( great Spanish pop-flamenco singer)
Drawing workshop and contest
Rock, hip-hop and rap concerts
Graffitti shows
Comic and super heroes street market
Fancy dress contest
But other places along the Costa Blanca like Denia, Altea, Javea and Calpe, just to name a few, are jumping with good times too.
