Altea is considered to be one of the most photographed towns on the Costa Blanca and has been inspiring artists and painters for decades.

Altea is a popular destination for those seeking a more relaxed and traditional Spanish experience. Its old town is a maze of charming streets filled with artisan shops, cafés, and restaurants serving local cuisine. The town is also renowned for its beaches, including the pebble beach of Playa de la Roda and the sandy shores of Cap Blanc. It overlooks the Mediterranean Sea and is backed by the Sierra de Bernia mountain range.

During the trip, you'll be part of an international community where you can meet new people and practice different languages.

Benidorm is one of the most famous tourist destinations in Spain, known for its skyscraper skyline, vibrant nightlife, and beautiful beaches. Its two main beaches, Levante Beach and Poniente Beach, are long stretches of golden sand lined with palm trees. Its skyline earned it the nicknames "Manhattan of Spain", "Beniyork" and "New York of the Mediterranean".
