Book your Costa Blanca holiday with a company you can trust at The Co-operative Travel.  The Costa Blanca gets its name from the fine white sands that form the hundreds of miles of gorgeous beaches along this part of the Spanish Mediterranean coast. At its heart is the city of Alicante, to which most people booked on Costa Blanca holidays will fly, taking just over two hours from the UK.

Thirty miles north of Alicante is the ever-popular resort of Benidorm. With its many high-rise hotels the resort is one of the most developed in Spain and as a result offers everything any British visitor could ever want. Two enormous striking beaches – Levante and Poniente Beach - and a number of theme and water parks mean there’s plenty to keep everyone occupied each day. Finding something to eat isn’t a problem as there is a choice of over 1,000 restaurants. Similarly, there are enough bars and clubs to keep most holidaymakers entertained, however long their holiday is to Costa Blanca!

Although Benidorm may be the biggest Costa Blanca resort it is certainly not the only one.  All resorts on the Costa Blanca originally started life as fishing villages but following the popularity of package holidays to Costa Blanca during the 1960s and 1970s they have developed into fully blown resorts. Stretching from Denia in the north to Torrevieja in the south the Costa Blanca’s other major resorts include; La Manga, Murcia, San Juan and Guardamar. La Manga in particular offers a range of sporting facilities including some of the best golf courses on the Costa Blanca making it a popular destination for sporty men and women.
 
However, all Costa Blanca resorts are eminently suited to British visitors, offering a brash blend of modern English and traditional Spanish cuisine and nightlife. Beaches are sandy and long and the weather is ideal during the summer months. Varied entertainment and plenty of things to do and see during the day at all resorts mean that the Costa Blanca offers something for just about everyone!
