If you want to take your vacation in Europe, consider heading towards Benidorm, Spain. Found within the famous Costa Blanca region, in the northern area called Alicante and very near the south of Altea, this resort town is developing a reputation of being Spain’s new party place. A big, bustling city, it has the ideal combination of clean beach fronts for relaxation and rejuvenation, and a thriving night life for serious dancing and merrymaking. The location—just a short driving distance of other attractions like Calpe, Javea, and Denia—make it the perfect base for exploring Costa Blanca.

Partying in Benidorm

Benidorm’s night life has made it a great place for the young and young hearted to engage in hours of dancing, drinking, dining and carefree enjoyment. It is a very modern city, where you can enjoy international cuisine as well as traditional Spanish dishes. AS for the music—there’s clearly more going on in the bars than the centuries old Spanish flamenco. Move and groove to the latest music and meet new people to make vacation memories with! This is a happenin’ place and there’s never a lack of things to do, even at three in the morning.

And after all that partying, you can catch up on your zzz’s while basking in the golden beaches. Nap under the sun, improving your tan while refreshing your energies for the next night’s partying.

But what if partying is not your thing? Or you’re ready for something quiet to do for the day? Then explore Benidorm’s historical district, known as Casco Antiguo. Here you’ll find the streets of San Lorenzo, San Vicente and Santa Fez, which have many historical buildings.

You can also unwind through a fun game of golf. The Alicante region, a short drive away from Benidorm, is home to .the Alicante Golf Club in San Juan beach, Bonalba Golf Club in Mutxamel, , and the Bosque Golf and Country Club in Chiva. There are also a dozen other golf courses for you to pick from.

But what about the kids, you ask? While you relax on the beach, or enjoy a game of golf, your kids can explore the theme parks of Terra Mitica, Mundomar and Aqualandia (a water park).
