Situated in the Valencian coast, Benidorm is well known to British holidaymakers as one of the first tourist venues dating back to the mid nineteen sixties. Above all, Benidorm is a tourist resort, and its 65,000 population can increase incredibly to more than half a million or more during the summer holiday season. This fact makes Benidorm one of the leading holiday venues in all of the Iberian Peninsula, and certain the most succesful per capita.

Benidorm is an eye catching city, and it is no coincidence that its venue has attracted visitors from all over the world for almost fifty years. Nowadays the skyline of Benidorm can be compared to any major city in the World, with its close packed multi story hotels and apartment buildings, allowing the city to earn the title of the Manhattan of the Mediterranean.

Yet these building fade into the background when compared with the fourteen hundred meter tall Puig Camapano mountain range, which is regarded as the most impressive mountains in all of the Costa Blanca.

A city that has long since turned a pampered holiday into a way of life has everything to offer to all ages and cultures. Starting from its sandy beaches, to its exotic yet affordable hotels, restaurants, night clubs and discos, Benidorm never sleeps and knows how to take care of the tourists who have been coming to feast on her attractions for decades. Such has been Benidorm’ S dramatic expansion, that little signs remain of her historical past.

For those more adventurous visitors who want to do some out of town sight seeing, it is always possible and not too expensive to rent a car and travel along the coast to investigate some of the historical sites outside the city. Some of the nearby villages, such as Polop with its water fountains or the pretty mountain town of Guadalest, are just a few venues that are worth a visit.

Whatever you decide, Benidorm has it all and looks forward to welcoming you
