About Benidorm

Benidorm blends sun-soaked beaches, modern skyline, and a lively old town to create a heady Mediterranean experience. Visitors flock to its two flagship shores, Levante and Poniente, for golden sands, turquoise water, and year-round water sports, while the marina and promenade buzz with bars, restaurants, and sunset views. Above the sea, sleek towers symbolize its daring resort identity, yet the historic Barrio de Benidorm preserves narrow lanes, tapas bars, and the Guardia Civil watchtower. Iconic viewpoints like Balcón del Mediterráneo offer sweeping coastlines, and nearby nature reserves, such as Sierra Helada, invite hiking and wildlife watching. Family-friendly theme parks and boat trips round out a dynamic escape.
