Alannia costa blanca, the “sunshine coast” of southeastern Spain, offers a gorgeous collection of beaches that beautiful as any invention in any language. Imagine waking up to beautiful pink sunrises, as far as the eye can see golden sands that never stop. If this is what beckons you, the sapphire-colored Mediterranean, then consider yourself to be in luck.
Start off at Playa del Postiguet where you will be in Alicante. A favorite place for the locals, it offers a stillness just minutes from this city’s lively pace. Sip a fresh cold drink at the beach-side bar–this is what dreams are made of.
For anyone fond of old world charm, Playa de la Granadella in Javea is a must visit. Nestled between rugged cliffs, this enchanting cove raises thoughts of The Caribbean. The sea boasts a clear, turquoise-sheen that’s perfect for swimming and even occasionally as snorkelling.
Then let’s make sure Calpe’s Playa de la Fossa is within your plans for another visit. As soft sand warms your feet and the incredible sight of the Peñón de Ifach rock looms nearby, there is nowhere more dazzling for your senses to enjoy. This place is pure spectacle, and many say you haven’t been to Costa Blanca until you’ve spent time here.
If you are after some excitement why not give windsurfing antigua, Playa de San Juan a try. Its seven kilometer length provides conditions perfect for thrill seekers. And beginners need not feel left out give a lesson or two–soon enough they’re out riding the surf alongside those who have been doing this for years.
And how could we leave out the famous Playa de Levante of Benidorm. By day it is a sanctuary for families and sun worshippers alike, but night brings out lively entertainment that you cannot ignore. At dusk, Spanish songs riot with laughter and always there are a few tapas to hand.
Remember, life is a beach- so grab your passport and get out there to see the wonders of the Costa Blanca coast. Relax, get away from it all-and let that magic sunlight do its best, stretching behind everything you can see!
