Spend unforgettable holidays in Altea

To visit Altea is to get immersed in one of the most charming towns of the Valencian Community. From the Punta del Mascarat set in a bay, Altea has found a nook between the sea and the mountains, granting an almost symbolic image of the Costa Blanca. With the blue and white dome of its Parochial Church, the municipality spreads down to the Mediterranean Sea. Small and beautiful coves and beaches extend along a littoral riddled with the same captivating white charm held by the town itself.

Altea is divided by the N-332 road, with the beaches and the marina on one side, and the old and the new town on the other side of the motorway. Nevertheless, this split doesn’t interfere with the varied offer of things to do in Altea, with both sides of the town owning their own great set of advantages.

Even though it is only a short drive from Benidorm, both towns have very few similarities with each other. Whereas Benidorm is all hustle and bustle, Altea is a quiet medieval town, with cobblestoned streets and beautiful white houses. If you’re going to visit Altea and you enjoy shopping, the Tuesday morning market in the new town is a must. The old town also has a lively commercial activity, predominantly consisting of restaurants and bars offering typical dishes and delicacies, or shops offering local art and craft specialties.

Moreover, if you enjoy cultural tourism, do not hesitate to visit Altea’s museum and the Casa de Cultura, a cultural centre with a library and art exhibitions.

Visit Altea and enjoy a unique experience in this singular town of the Valencian Community.

How to get here:

The A-7 motorway, exit 64, leads to Altea and the N-332 (Valencia-Alicante) main road crosses the population. It has a railway station on the FGV, Alicante-Dénia line. There is also a bus service that communicates the municipality with the rest of the province. The Altet airport (Alicante) is to 61 km away.

Hija de la luna

Hija de la luna will get you feeling emotional, reminding you of the days when you used to sing along to songs like Cruz de Navajas and danced to La fuerza del destino. This gig is a tribute to Mecano. With a similar voice and appearance to Ana Torroja, Robin Torres is certainly one of the reasons for this tribute’s success. Between 2016 and 2019 they performed 250 concerts throughout Spain and Latin America, the majority of which sold out. Now the group is coming to Altea to delight the audience with Mecano’s most famous songs. Get all nostalgic on the 28 November in Palau d’Altea.

The Legend of Hamelin

Once upon a time, there was a small German town named Hamelin. (Have you heard of it?) Grab your little ones and head to Palau Altea to see a theatrical production of the legend of this special town. If you can’t make that performance, keep checking Palau Altea’s calendar—the venue hosts a calendar of musical, theatrical and comedy shows for the whole family all year long.

Tickets can be booked online in advance.

Recorriendo los dominios del Diablo

Over many years, the strength of torrential rain has sculpted a 15-kilometre fissure into the mountain, known as dominios de Diablo, or the Devil’s land. Explore this natural phenomenon to experience nature at its rawest and get your adrenaline pumping at the same time. At first view, you’ll be left speechless. The walls of the gorge are so close they practically touch at some points, with rocky blocks appearing on all sides. The trail will take you into the heart of the mountain and its incredible vertical landscapes, discovering spectacular gorges and underground caves. If you’re looking to be taken aback by the power of nature, this is the place for you.
