Costa Blanca is located on Spain’s southeastern Mediterranean coast, in the province of Alicante. It stretches along the sea, from lively coastal towns and quiet coves to inland valleys, mountain villages and traditional farmland.
This is where the Mediterranean meets the mountains creating a unique microclimate with mild winters, long sunny seasons and a landscape rich in olive groves, citrus trees, almonds and vineyards.
For visitors, Costa Blanca offers the best of both worlds: the beauty of the coast and the slower, more authentic rhythm of inland Spain.
Altea
Altea is one of the most charming towns on the Costa Blanca. Known for its whitewashed old town, blue-domed church, narrow cobbled streets and beautiful views over the Mediterranean, it is a place that feels both elegant and deeply relaxed.
While many coastal towns are built around busy beaches and tourism, Altea has kept a softer rhythm. It is a town made for slow walks, long lunches, art galleries, small cafés, hidden corners and quiet moments with a sea view.
