La "Costa Blanca"
The Countryside
Costa Blanca is the name given to the 212 km stretch of land on the eastern mediterranean coast in the Province of Alicante. An interesting countryside
bursting with almond and orange groves, palm trees, fruit and vegetable gardens, vineyards and pine trees. |

This unique climate has often been referred to as the Florida of Europe. While temperatures at the coast are mild, on average around 17° C, it seldom rains. Inland
the rainfall is higher which guarantees enough water for the Coastal regions.
The sea around the Costa Blanca is so clean it has received more "blue flags" from the European Community than any other stretch of coast in Europe. The lack of heavy industry in this area and the environmental protection both
contribute to the regions high standards. Each corner of this coast has is own attractions. The Costa Blanca has many.
