Long golden sands backed by dunes and pine — the local favourite for morning swims.
A local guide
Explore Torrevieja.
The southern Costa Blanca at a slower rhythm — beaches, pink salt lakes, salt-air markets and the kind of restaurants Spain still keeps to itself.
Torrevieja sits forty minutes south of Alicante, on a stretch of coast defined by hidden coves, long clean beaches and the famous pink salinas. It's a Spanish town first, a tourist town second — the food is real, the coffee is cheap, and the evenings belong to the paseo.
Every travel time below is measured by car from Costa Solara Resort.
