The Orihuela Costa
The Orihuela Costa is 16 kilometres of coast shared between six beaches: Punta Prima, Playa Flamenca, La Zenia, Cabo Roig, Campoamor and Mil Palmeras. Every year the Playa Flamenca beaches have been granted the Blue Flag by the European Union for their excellent state of services, hygiene and conservation. The beaches are well signposted and possess a range of services such as showers, footbaths, ramps, children's play areas, lifeguard services, beach security guards and special areas of relaxation.
Also along this stretch of coast there is a succession of sandy coves backing onto cliffs which are very popular with tourists and residents alike due to the crystal clear waters and the golden sand. The little beach bars, "chiringuitos", serve tapas, snacks and cold drinks and are a good place to watch the world go by.
This stretch of coast has two sports marinas, one at Cabo Roig and the other in Campoamor where nautical sports can be practiced. The Playa Flamenca beach has a first-aid station, game zone, public telephone, public lavatories and showers, as well as numerous restaurants.
The area is serviced by two local airports, Alicante about 45 minutes by car to the north and Murcia (San Javier) approximately 20 minutes to the south. Playa Flamenca is easily reached using the national N332 road or the AP7 motorway. The town of Torrevieja is a short drive or bus ride away.
