Benidorm has very good weather conditions all year round, it is protected by a series of mountains which keep the climate nice for the whole year. This weather has made this city one of the most popular tourist destinations in the whole of Spain. It started becoming a popular destination a couple of decades ago and ever since has been becoming more and more popular.

This destination is popular with singles, couples and families with young children. You can also hire quite big cars which makes it easy to go on holiday in Benidorm. By renting a car you can easily travel the length and breadth of the Costa Blanca in style! There are many other interesting towns, such as Calpe, Denia, Javea and Altea which you might want to visit.

It rarely rains in Benidorm, although the locals crave for rain the tourists are grateful of the continuous sunshine. This makes it the perfect vacation destination once you find time to relax. You can find flights into Alicante airport which is located 43km from Benidorm and will take around 40 minutes to drive.

Enjoying Benidorm

Benidorm's economy was once based on agriculture and fishing, it was originally made what it is by the Arabs, who not only named it but also left a lot of influences in the area. It's amazing how well the old buildings of the area cope with the modern ones, there's no competition really, the old ones are always more beautiful!

Have fun in Benidorm

Although Benidorm used to be a simple fishing village, a lot has changed since then. It's not the place to go just to see museums and other attractions which are similar. This town has been transformed, into something which is a very popular tourist destination.

There are now many seafront hotels and lovely Spanish food which is very interesting to everyone, especially those who are retired. Many families also found out that it was fairly inexpensive to get to this area, and so it could be a very good, but inexpensive family holiday. They quickly found some fantastic beaches where their children would love going. Once families started going the government and local businesses started investing in more family friendly forms of entertainment, including theme parks, animal parks and water parks.

Aqualandia Water Park This is located in the middle of the city and can be reached by bus, or sometimes walked to depending on where your hotel is.

Mundomar Park You can have a look at tropical animals like dolphins and seals easily.

Terra Mitica This theme park was only opened in 2000 and so is quite new.

Benidorm has entertainment which is suitable for people of all ages. There are also many different choices when it comes to food, including hamburger joints, taverns, pizzerias, and restaurants. These are popular with locals and tourists alike.
