Alicante
is an ever growing city as more and
more people chose Alicante as the
ideal place in Europe to live a
comfortable life within modern
surroundings and with a permanent
blue sky. "Wake up happy" is the
feeling you have when living in
Alicante, and without a doubt the
most upmarket region of Alicante is
the Alicante Golf resort, located
within 200 meters of the San Juan
beach.
Getting to Alicante is so easy with
daily flights from almost every
European country, and accommodation
is never a problem due to a large
number of holiday rental villas and
apartments up and down the Costa
Blanca coastline, including Alicante,
Benidorm, Villajoyosa, El Campello
and Alicante Golf.
For many arriving to Alicante and
finding accommodation is normally
taken care of before arriving, but
once here in Alicante, you may need
to travel. These Alicante travel
tips will help you arrive at any
destination whether within Alicante
or any other Spanish destination.
Alicante's main train station is
found in the centre of Alicante near
the "El Corte Ingles" shopping
centre. Virtually every major
Spanish city is accessible,
including Madrid, Seville,
Barcelona, Valencia and Bilbao.
There are high speed train
connections on a regular basis and
you can even book at the station or
online at Renfe.es - Address: Avda.
De Salamanca, Alicante. Tel: +34 965
923 850.
If you are looking at having a look
locally, some of the best spots are
just North of Alicante and the Tram
is ideal for arriving in virtual
luxury at very reasonable rates.
More details can be found on their
web site - http://www.fgvalicante.com
. Trams run every 15 or 30 minutes
and tickets from Alicante to El
Campello can either be purchased in
the tram station or on the tram
itself if that service is not
available. For just over a Euro you
could be in Alicante Golf within 10
minutes and have a walk around what
is becoming the elite residential
area of Alicante.
Within Alicante itself there is a
great bus service that will take you
to which ever part you wish to visit.
The red buses are used for the inner
city areas of Alicante, whereas the
Blue buses go to the surrounding
villages such as El Campello which
is the number 21. Check out the
following web site for Alicante bus
travel times - www.alicante-ayto.es/ingles/traffic_transport/transportes-tarifas-tam.html.
The Alicante central bus station is
situated at "Address: Calle Portugal
17, Alicante", and also has services
to the rest of the province of
Alicante, as well as national and
international services. You will
normally find traveling by bus the
cheaper option to the train, but I
would personally only chose that
option as the last.
One of the best ways to travel short
and long distances from Alicante is
the public bus system. Alicante has
a nice bus station located in Calle
Portugal - close to the harbour.
Many bus companies operate from this
bus station and offer connections to
many other regions in Spain. For
further information regards bus
services leaving Alicante please
phone +34 965 130 700.
You may on the other hand wish to
avoid public transport and get a
hire car direct from the Alicante
airport, or you can arrange that too
beforehand online. You should not be
paying any more than 100 Euro a week,
so compare rates first.
Getting a taxi in Alicante may
sometimes be your only option, so
make note of this telephone number
that may come in handy - 965 10 16
11. There is a minimum service
charge, but overall it is not too
expensive for just an emergency.
From Alicante to the Airport you
would expect to pay about 30 Euro,
which is about a 25 minute drive.

Alicante and play golf on the
