The apartment is situated in Orhuela Costa. This is on the borders of Los Altos and La Florida.
There is a large hypermarket about 20 minutes drive away. The water park in Torrevieja is a favourite attraction for families & younger visitors. There is a Go-Kart track in the area, which is excellent fun & entertainment for all ages.
Costa Blanca, the white coast, is famous for its wonderful climate, all year round. Even the Spanish claim that local inhabitants live up to 10 years longer than the rest of Spain. Facilities have improved dramatically in the last few years, particularly with the addition of motorway routes directly into the area & the growth of excellent, all-year round, golf clubs.
Torrevieja, which is on the coast, about 40 minutes south of Alicante airport and about 30 minutes north of Murcia airport, is a bustling town based on an old fishing village. It has all the amenities needed for eating, drinking, shopping & generally having fun in the sun.
Torrevieja has a mixture of restaurants, shops and bars. There is a promenade which is a pleasent walk. There is also a long breakwater that juts out into the sea. This is about 1.5 miles long and allows pedestrians to walk along it. Again this is another pleasent walk.
There is a nightly fun fair, during the summer months only.
The harbour has facilities for boats rides and also allows access to a S61 submarine.
La Cinuelica is about a 10 minute drive south of the town of Torrevieja.
