The Costa Blanca on the South East coast of Spain is well known for its fantastic white sandy beaches, Flamenco music and dance, bullfights, extensive golf courses and a variety of mouthwatering culinary traditions plus lots of sunshine, 320 days of it, wonderful!!!
The city of Alicante and the towns of Torrevieja and Playa Flamenca are gaining in size and importance to the province of Valencia, Costa Blanca. Flamenca Beach Playa Flamenca is 4km from Torrevieja, reputed to be the most progressive town in all Europe, it is situated by lovely beaches, has a Fishing Port and boasts a Marina, soon to be extended. Torrevieja is famed for its Salt Lakes with Pink Flamingos wadding in the pink/blue lagoons. The area has been decreed to be the healthiest area in the World, according to the World Health Organisation, why live any where else or go anywhere else for your holidays. The historical cities of Alicante, Orihuela, Murcia, Elche and Cartegena are less one hour distant from Flamenca Beach, great for a day out exploring on an open top bus or by horse and carriage, depending on the time of year and the weather of course!!
Golf Courses are everywhere along the coast. The famed Villamartin, Campoamor, Las Ramblas are 10 minutes drive from Flamenca Beach whilst La Manga and Polaris World courses are just an hours drive. These golf courses are just few of the many International Golf Courses already created for your enjoyment, more are planned for the future as Playa Flamenca continues its expansion plans.
