Rental cars give you the freedom to explore fascinating sights across Alicante. Some notable stopovers include:

  • The stunning Santa Bárbara Castle.
  • The city's main beach, Playa del Postiguet.
  • The Alicante Museum of Contemporary Art.
  • The pleasing Explanada de España, Alicante's main promenade.

City's Neighborhoods

The colorful neighborhoods of Alicante make it a vibrant city. The atmospheric Barrio de la Santa Cruz is a must-visit spot with its narrow streets and brightly colored houses. For some excellent shopping opportunities, try the modern Gran Via area.
