make this an established favourite with the many people

Whether you like a coastline of long wide beaches or
spectacular rocky coves and secret bays the Costa Blanca
has them all.The "Bandera Azul" (EC Blue Flag) is flown

villages where you feel you are stepping back in time.
Most towns have historic areas ,usually close to the
centre, which are mazes of narrow steep streets crammed
with houses which have not changed for centuries. Peep
through an open door and you will see a courtyard oasis
filled with plants, and a cool shaded patio. These are
made for outdoor living and the hidden gems of peace
and quiet. In the evenings people sit outside their
front doors and chat and watch the world go by. A very
sociable life style greets you in Spain .
Wherever you go you will be sure to be welcomed by a courteous,
polite and generous race who love life and show it.
