For example, its miles-long boulevard along the Mediterranean Sea with many lovely restaurants, pavement cafe's, beautiful and trendy shops. At the top of the hill on the famous Church square, concerts are given, art fairs are held.

The hinterland is interesting with quaint towns. Quadelest for example. Orchards with sweet smelling orange trees, with almond and olive trees. Benidorm is only 10 miles away, with its long sandy beaches and endless water-sport possibilities. There are disco's, bars and restaurants. Between Altea and Benidorm lies "Terra Mitica", a very interesting theme-park and an absolute must for all ages. Alicante with its beautiful palm-lined boulevards is only half an hour drive away. Valencia with its many museums and lovely inner city is just a little further.
