Altea is a picturesque little fishing village tucked amongst the cliffs. It has a multitude of steep narrow streets full of tempting craft shops, boutiques, bars and bougainvillea tumbling down from the blue-domed church to the attractive palm-lined esplanade. Here you can try out water sports or visit the famous Tuesday market on the seafront. Due to the spectacular scenery, it is patronized by the artistic community, which is evident in the abundance of art shops and galleries.

Altea Hills is known as the 'Mini-Marbella of the Costa Blanca', with its marina packed with expensive yachts and its top class golf course.

Beautiful sandy beaches are just a 10 minute drive along the coast to Calpe, where you will also find shops, bars & restaurants.
