THE CITY OF BENIDORM
Situada en el corazón de la Marina Baixa, Benidorm es una ciudad con alma mediterránea. Tiene más de 300 días de sol al año, playas urbanas kilométricas y aguas cristalinas. Los lugareños llaman a Benidorm la “Ciudad de los rascacielos”, elevándola al mismo nivel que otros paisajes urbanos y horizontes de renombre mundial, como Nueva York y Hong Kong.
Su reputación como un popular lugar de vacaciones ha sido un enfoque de las autoridades centradas en garantizar la seguridad”. En este sentido, cabe recordar que la máxima prioridad en la gestión, desde marzo de 2020, fue garantizar la seguridad de vecinos, residentes y turistas, conservando la marca Benidorm.
Tradicionalmente, Benidorm ha sido una ciudad poblada por pescadores y sus familias. Pasea por su Casco Antiguo y descubre los vestigios de su pasado marinero, como la Calle Mayor, la Plaza de Canalejas o el castillo, todos ellos con un encantador legado cultural. En la Plaza del Castillo hay un espectacular mirador que no te puedes perder. (Se llama la “terraza del Mediterráneo” porque ofrece unas vistas inmejorables de la costa de Benidorm.)
Separadas entre sí por un popular paseo marítimo, las playas de Levante y Poniente son conocidas por su amplia oferta de servicios y restauración. Estas son playas accesibles con algo para cualquier tipo de viajero. El Casco Viejo, situado entre ambas playas, alberga la Cala de Mal Pas, un pequeño paraje conocido por su encanto y belleza incomparable. Frente a ella, la isla de Benidorm es un paraíso para los buceadores y los amantes del agua.
