Beaches, golf and good value
Property for sale on the Costa Blanca South
Torrevieja, Orihuela Costa, Guardamar and the villages around them make up the southern Costa Blanca, in Alicante province. Expect long sandy beaches, golf, plenty of shops and restaurants, and a large year-round international community.
It is generally better value than the north, and a lot of new-build apartments and villas are being built here, so there is plenty of choice. Alicante-Elche is the main airport, and Region of Murcia airport is also within reach.
Within the area, places differ. Orihuela Costa has resort-style communities near golf, Torrevieja is a larger town with its own character, and Guardamar has dunes and pine woods behind the beach. Visiting more than one is worth the trip.
