Romantic, relaxing strolls are part and parcel of any couples’ holiday and even holidays for families.
Some of the best places for such strolls are usually down beach-facing promenades. However, the promenade in Alicante might distract amblers, what with its unique design. The local council decided to repave the promenade, creating a 3D steps effect that has confused locals and holidaymakers alike. Alas, its prominent design has ensured it arrests the attention of anyone walking along it.

Plenty to do Along the Front
Whilst the promenade walkway is a striking feature of the Alicante coastline, there is more to discover about this underrated part of Spain. Many people consider it only as the gateway to the sunshine and seaside resorts of the Costa Blanca but as a city it offers a great deal more. The beaches are fantastic and one of the most common and, popular things to do, (other than relaxing under the sun) is to try scuba diving or snorkelling around the coast. There are many organised events for this with schools offering lessons for beginners and also equipment hire

Discovering Some Natural Beauty
Further out is the Guadalest Valley which is enchanting as an almost perfect fairytale setting. It offers some spectacular views of a rich, verdant pocket of Spain. There is also a network of shops and places to grab a bite to eat and a drink. It is necessary to allocate a full day to the Guadalest Valley to give you time to absorb all of its many features and also to give you time to visit the shops.
Finally, for something a little more on the indulgent fun side Mundomar Park is a great day out for all the family. Jet2.com offer flights to Alicante, helping holidaymakers escape to the year round sun of this popular destination
