Rich Cultural History...
Alicante holidays will take you to Spain's "white coast", the Costa Blanca. The city is often referred to as the Cultural Capital of the area, due to its rich cultural history. Though now very modern, it's easy to see that the city has not lost its traditional Spanish charm. Just take a look at the city's landmark, Castillo de Santa Barbara which takes you back in time. There are over 10 museums and places of cultural interest so you'll never get bored! Take a trip to see the bull-fighting, an age old tradition which still takes place in the Plaza del Toros, one of Spain's oldest bull rings. If you want to try something different, take to the sky and try your hand at sky-diving or paragliding! The photos will make your friends back home envious! If you want to combine your holidays to Alicante with some relaxation, head to one of the many beaches. San Juan beach is the most popular and can be very busy during the summer months. It stretches for over 7kms and has a variety of restaurants and cafes along the promenade.
