A local’s guide: 48 hours in La Nucia, España

Vince Tracy: Brilliant place to be on New Year's Eve. Nice place to go for a coffee and walk around the town.

Vince Tracy: Voted Best Sports Centre in Spain....or is it Europe?

Yolandita: Recordando viejos tiempos.....Un lugar encantador, muchos museos, un cementerio pequeñisimo pero grandioso, las vistas desde el castillo al lago/presa son fabulosas.

Vince Tracy: About 20 mins drive from La Nucia lies the lovely town of Altea

Juan M.E.: En mayo y septiembre fantastico para pasear por la noche. Olvodate de junio, julio y sobre todo agosto.

Vince Tracy: Another great town....I think it pre-dates Benidorm. It's very different and there is a lovely beach front for a great paseo

Vince Tracy: This picture is the Poniente side and the promenade walk takes you in the direction of La Cala. You can have a really nice two hour stroll here with a coffee at both ends if you're in the mood!

Vince Tracy: This is the small beach in between Poniente and Levante with the steps dividing East from West...

Vince Tracy: From La Cala up in the mountains it's a 20 minute drive to La Nucia or La Cala de Finestrat. It's a nice place to swim .

Vince Tracy: Here's another nice place to take a walk.

Vince Tracy: Albir has some nice shops and music venues. Try Country Ribs for the Jam nights.

Vince Tracy: Up in the mountains overlooking Albir....and some world famous celebrities use the plae

Vince Tracy: If you like Skyscrapers you'll love Benidorm!
