Description

Benidorm is the tourist destination par excellence in the province of Alicante, but between a day at the beach and a walk along the Paseo Marítimo you can - and should - discover other unique places in the surroundings. Leaving in the morning, you can travel comfortably by bus to visit the 3 essential places on this excursion from Benidorm. Cascadas del Algar In the first part of the excursion we will visit the Fuentes del Algar, a fascinating natural area made up of spectacular waterfalls that provide great biodiversity to the environment. In fact, the Fuentes del Algar are declared a Protected Wetland Area for their environmental wealth. You will have free time to take a bath or enjoy this place as you wish. Guadalest Next, drive a short distance to Guadalest, one of the most beautiful medieval towns in Spain. Enjoy a guided walking tour while learning about the fascinating history of the town that has been declared a historical site and a Site of Cultural Interest for its rich heritage. Discover the Church of Our Lady of the Assumption or the imposing Castle of San José and admire the imposing fortress surrounded by mountains with spectacular panoramic views. Once you have finished the walking tour, enjoy free time to continue exploring or try the local cuisine. Walk around the city and choose to visit one of its museums, such as the Museum of Microminiatures, the Museum of Microgiants, the Museum of Salt and Pepper Shaker or the Ethnological Museum. Altea Halfway between the sea and the mountains is the quiet town of Altea. If you are looking for Mediterranean essence, it offers you six kilometers of coastline among which its coves and stone beaches stand out. There is no postcard worth its salt that shows the great dome of the Church of Consuelo, a key point of the old town of Altea. With the white houses, the cobbled streets and the blue tones of the sea appearing in every corner, a walk through Altea is a gift. We will visit the Portal Vell, the Glorieta del Mar or the Plaza Carmelina Sánchez Cutillas on a guided walking tour before having free time to stroll along the beach, take photos or buy souvenirs in the craft shops. Don't miss the opportunity to cross off your to-do list the 3 must-see places in the province of Alicante. Book your excursion now!
