Benidorm's beaches and many leisure facilities has made it the Costa Blanca's main tourist area, along with Alicante, it boasts some of the best beaches in Europe, with 3 miles of fine sand which is cleaned daily, the quality of the services and activities, and the clear water being the main reasons why it attracts so many visitors, like Javea. Since the 1950's Benidorm has changed dramatically in its appearance, once a small fishing village it is now a sprawl of skyscrapers and hotels. Benidorm has cleaned up its act since the 80's and now the young British holiday makers and 'larger louts' who gave it a bad name are no longer the majority of the tourists to this town. Now you will find more and more elderly holiday makers from England, Germany and Northern Spain come to Benidorm. The true capital of the Costa Blanca, Benidorm is one of the symbols of the Spanish tourist growth, the small village of fishermen and farmers, which had 2.000 inhabitants at the beginning of the century, has grown into one of the most important tourist complexes of the world, capable of lodging 5.000.000 visitors a year. Theme parks, tennis, squash, golf, athletics, go-karts, paragliding, swimming, sailing, motor boats, rowing, fishing and deep sea diving are just some of the activities that Benidorm and its surroundings offer you as well as offering you a rich cuisine with a wide choice of rice and fish.
