The Playa de Levante is probably one of the most famous urban beaches in Europe: its image has become a symbol of the well-known Spanish seaside resort of Benidorm.
Due to its southern orientation, Benidorm’s Levante beach guarantees long hours of sunshine throughout the day – a true paradise for sunbathers.
The fine, golden sand slopes gently into the warm, calm waters of the Mediterranean, where adults and children can bathe safely.
But Playa de Levante is not just a temple of leisure: on the contrary, it teems with activity day and night. Parallel to the beach, about two kilometres long, stretches Benidorm’s seafront, crowded with people at all hours. Here residents and tourists of all nationalities come to stroll, jog, shop, drink a‘copa’.
When the sun goes down, Playa de Levante doesn’t slow down, rather it turns up the volume: the area’s numerous clubs and discos are some of the most popular haunts for party animals here on holiday.
Of all the things you can do on holiday, finding accommodation in Playa de Levante will certainly not be a problem!
