Are you in need of a holiday in the sun? You can opt to leave the grey skies behind by heading to Spain and the 325 sunny days in Benidorm each year. Benidorm is located in the Costa Blanca along the Mediterranean coast. One of Spain’s most visited spots, this is the perfect holiday resort to relax and have fun. Skyscraper buildings and high rise hotels in Benidorm create a stunning skyline, but the old town still provides quaint charm. There are plenty of great places to eat and drink as well as a wide selection of hotels in Benidorm.

Benidorm has long, sandy beaches that are perfect for soaking up the sun. Levante Beach is the most popular with more than 5,000 beach chairs. For a less crowded experience, Poniente Beach is quieter, but equally long and luxurious. Both beaches are very clean and have lifeguards on duty. Closer to the harbour is the smaller and more private beach of Malpas.

Activity-wise, sightseeing boat trips leave from the marina to take visitors to Benidorm Island and the Port of Calpe. Meanwhile, the beaches offer plenty in the way of water sports, from jet skiiing and paragliding to scuba diving. Benidorm also has four large theme parks. Families and the young at heart will particularly enjoy the water rides and Aqualandia and roller coasters at terra Mitica. For the animal lovers, there are Mundomar, a marine animals park, and Terra Natura, a wildlife park. For hotels in Benidorm that are close to these attractions, check out the Ricon de Loix area.

There may be lots of sunshine and activities by day, but it’s at night when Benidorm really heats up. There is extensive nightlife for just about any taste: tons of clubs for dancing the night away; great drinks in the pubs and theme bars; and entertainment with cabaret shows and novelty acts. The most famous nightclub is the Benidorm Palace, featuring an exotic dinner show of specialty dancers.

If you want sunny, relaxing days and exciting nights, the many beaches, bars, activities and hotels in Benidorm will provide the perfect holiday. Start planning your trip today.
