5 days in Benidorm Itinerary

A major seaside resort on the famous Costa Blanca, Benidorm was built compactly, thanks to the foresight of a local government administrator in the 1960s, who had a vision for a holiday destination that would grow upwards.

Attractions like Mundomar and Playa de Levante make great kid-friendly stops. Get out of town with these interesting Benidorm side-trips: El Palmeral (in Elche) and Alicante (Museo Arqueologico de Alicante, Explanada de Espana, &more). Pack the 4th (Tue) with family-friendly diversions at Terra Mitica. There's still lots to do: take a stroll through El Casco Antiguo de Benidorm, get to know the fascinating history of Placa del Castell, get engrossed in the history at La Casa Museo Barbera dels Aragones, and get to know the resident critters at Terra Natura.
