10 Churches & Cathedrals in Costa Blanca That You Shouldn't Miss

November 22, 2021 Tynisha Seiler

Costa Blanca is the name given to Alicante's coastline in Spain, which stretches over 200 kilometers. It is an incredibly popular holiday destination for tourists, because of the marvelous weather and beaches. Costa Blanca is family friendly, thanks to the huge range of activities available there from beaches and golf to museums and parks. There are the beaches, such as Los Náufragos in Torrevieja with its volleyball nets, golden sands and Blue Flag status, or smaller beaches like Serragrosa with its crystal waters, ideal for swimmers. But there are also golf courses (particularly the Villaitana club de golf near Benidorm) and watersports facilities and cultural sites like museums and galleries, such as the La Asegurada Municipal Museum in Alicante which has extensive collections of Spanish art. You will need a couple of weeks on the Costa Blanca just to scratch the surface of its entertainment potential.

Absolutely stunning church situated in the old town of benidorm. You can really feel the history that surrounds you. Very nice and peaceful inside. The gold foor is amazing. Loved every minute of being inside this historic building. Words just can't describe it. You must go and visit it for yourselves.

Basilica de Santa Maria

Reviewed By Zebby66

A visit to Basilica de Santa Maria is a must if your in Elche... The bell tower is just amazing!!!! The €2 administration fee is a bargain. The 270 or so spiral staircase is not for everyone, it gets quite narrow at the very top and if your claustrophobic maybe not for you... But all that said if you can give it a go.. On each level on the way up that have set out how it would have been in the past. The hole experience on the way up is very informative and fun.. and the views from the top “BREATHTAKING” May just be helpful to ask at the bottom how many people are already up the tower as passing people on the stairs can be a bit challenging...
