Frequently Asked Questions

At the Muelle de Levante, about two kilometres from the historic centre. A free shuttle links the terminal to Plaza Puerta del Mar in a few minutes; strong walkers cover the distance in twenty minutes along the basins.
A promenade paved in red, cream and black marble mosaic, six and a half million tesserae laid in stone waves beneath four rows of palm trees, facing the yachts. It is Alicante's open-air drawing room.
A lift cut into the rock, entered from the seafront near Postiguet beach, saves the climb. The fortress stands 166 metres above the water and ranks among Spain's largest medieval military sites.
A full circle of views over the bay, the old town rooftops and the inland mountains. The route is self-guided, through Arab-era ramparts, Gothic halls and cannon batteries.
The old town at the foot of Mount Benacantil: brightly painted lanes, cobalt and ochre houses in the Santa Cruz quarter, washing on balconies and flowered staircases. It holds the co-cathedral of San Nicolás and the basilica of Santa María.
Yes, Postiguet beach adjoins the centre, within walking distance of the terminal. It is one of the rare Mediterranean calls where a swim can be improvised between two monuments.
The Explanada and the marina, the lift up to the castle, then El Barrio and the Mercado Central. Everything sits within a kilometre of the marina, which makes it one of Spain's densest calls.
Under modernist vaults, ten minutes north of the centre: red prawns from the coast, cured tuna, Calasparra rice and mountains of citrus. It is the place to spot the products behind the local cooking.
The seafood rices, which local restaurants take well beyond paella and often serve straight in their cast-iron pan. And turrón, the province's speciality, in its ice-cream version when it is hot.
Seen from the quay, its flank forms the profile of a sleeping face, nicknamed the Moor's Face. Look for it before you go ashore: the pier is the best vantage point.
