Top Attractions
Benedorm Beaches - The beaches I have visited in Benedorm are by far the best I have seen with all sorts of entertainment from one end to the other end may it be that you just want to lay and sun bath or do water sports paddle with your kids play with the little ones on the apparatus provided for small children or just a leisurely stroll itâs just amazing.
Alicante Shopping
Alicante is great for buying ceramics, woodcarvings, and hand-tooled leather items, with outlets on just about every street corner. Modern sculptures in wood, marble and stone can be bought at the studio of Pedro Soriano at the Plaza San Antonio 2. There is also a large department store for the more mundane, every day necessities at El Corte Inagles, on Ave. Maison Nave 53.

Located in the town of Benidorm is the theme park, Terra Mitica, which has been divided into five sections, Egypt, Greece, Rome, Iberia, and the Islands. Filled with attractions such as the giant roller coaster, Magnus Colossus, and a model of the Port of Alexandria at the time of Cleopatra, as well as live performances of actors entertaining the public. There are also bars, restaurants and cafeterias for refreshments and relaxation.
