Torrevieja Weather

Torrevieja - Every year thousands of holidaymakers from Spain and indeed all over Europe head for the Costa Blanca town of Torrevieja. Its great range of facilities, its excellent sandy beaches and its lively atmosphere all help to make it a popular choice. Formerly a small fishing village, Torrevieja became one of the major salt exporters in the world thanks to the two huge salt lakes located behind the town. An explosion in property development during the 1980’s and 1990’s caused the town to grow at a phenomenal rate. Torrevieja weather is normally warm and sunny with very low rainfall.

Punta Prima - At the northern end of the area known as the Orihuela Costa is the beautiful coastal resort of Punta Prima. Best known for its huge palm trees, lined behind its ‘blue flag’ beach, Punta Prima is a popular location for holidaymakers from all over Europe. Lying close to the bustling town of Torrevieja, Punta Prima is perfectly located for a wide range of facilities, handy for the golf courses of Villamartin, Campoamor and Las Ramblas, Punta Prima is also a great area for water sports and fishing, the Go-Kart track along the N332 is very popular with the children.

Playa Flamenca - Located in the Orihuela Costa district of the southern Costa Blanca, Playa Flamenca could not be called a traditional Spanish village, in fact up until the early 1970’s it was just an area of barren coastline. Developed by a group of Flemish investors, Playa Flamenca has become one of the most popular destinations along the coast, the newly improved beach and promenade have given the resort a much needed facelift. The busy Saturday market is one of the big attractions of Playa Flamenca and thousands of shoppers head there every week looking for a bargain or two

La Zenia - Another of the Orihuela Costa resorts which has grown up due to heavy property development along the Costa Blanca, is the area called La Zenia. Not a traditional Spanish village in the real sense of the word but a popular area none the less, La Zenia has two fabulous ‘blue flag’ beaches (Cala Bosque and Cala Cerrada). La Zenia has a decent range of bars and restaurants, with a new commercial centre being built near the motorway. Popular with Irish holidaymakers, its famous pub, Paddy’s Point, is claimed to have been the first Irish pub in the region.

Cabo Roig - The resort of Cabo Roig is one of the coastal towns of the Vega Baja district of the Alicante province, situated in an area of the coastline known as the Orihuela Costa. Cabo Roig originally grew up around a sixteenth century watchtower which was constructed to warn the neighbourhood of impending attacks from Berber pirates which occurred frequently along this part of the coast between the 14^th and 17^th centuries. Cabo Roig is now a popular holiday resort with 2 superb beaches and an exclusive marina and yachting club. One of the highlights of Cabo Roig is the stunning cliff walk from Cala Caleta to La Zenia, providing some breathtaking views along the way.
