Costa Blanca, the Mediterranean paradise
The Costa Blanca is the tourist name given to the Mediterranean coast that bathes the province of Alicante, in southeastern Spain. It stretches from the municipality of Denia in the north to Pilar de la Horadada in the south. It consists of 244 km of beaches, coves and cliffs. It is bordered to the north by the Costa de Valencia and to the south by the Costa Cálida (Region of Murcia).
The towns located on the Costa Blanca are: Denia, Jávea, Benitachell, Teulada-Moraira, Benisa, Calpe, Altea, Alfaz del Pi, Benidorm, Finestrat, Villajoyosa, Campello, Alicante, Elche, Santa Pola, Guardamar del Segura, Torrevieja, Orihuela Costa and Pilar de la Horadada.

Its capitals par excellence are the cities of Benidorm and Torrevieja, since these municipalities are the great tourist focus of the Costa Blanca and the entire Levantine coast.
