Things to do
The area’s rich culture is world known, fresh sea food, paella, relaxed lifestyle, fabulous wines, warm and welcoming people.

Torrevieja is an old fishing town, with its own harbour and small fishing fleet. Bounded by the beautiful Mediterranean on one side and thousands of acres of fruit groves inland, the scenery is breathtakingly beautiful and within moments you can be driving in picturesque open countryside, where you can stop and pick a fresh orange or lemon.
The Torrevieja coastline, with its promenade, clean beaches, and a full range of services and tourist installations, is one of the most attractive tourist destinations along the southern coast of the Region of Valencia.
The local area could not be described as a resort, in the package holiday sense, there are only a few hotels and the area is much loved by the Spanish who flock here during the summer months for their holidays.
