COSTA BLANCA’S IDYLLIC ESCAPE
Kickstart your adventure with a day at La Zenia Beach, famed for its soft golden sand and crystal-clear water. A popular spot for locals and holidaymakers alike, whether you’re soaking up the sun or taking a refreshing dip, the beach provides a tranquil setting with all the facilities you need for a lazy day on a sun lounger.
Take a stroll through bustling La Zenia Boulevard, one of the largest shopping centres in the region, featuring everything from high-end fashion stores to charming local boutiques. With numerous cafés and restaurants, it’s a great spot to enjoy a coffee or a relaxed meal, while soaking in the lively atmosphere.
La Zenia is a foodie’s paradise, offering a wide range of dining options from traditional Spanish tapas bars to international cuisine. Don’t miss out on the fresh seafood dishes, like paella and grilled sardines, or some classic Spanish coast fare, like the traditional rice dish arroz a banda, complemented by a glass of local wine, for an authentic Mediterranean dining experience.
For a day out, take a bus or a 30-minute cab ride to the stunning, historic town of Orihuela. Known for its ancient churches, monasteries, and traditional Spanish architecture, Orihuela offers a glimpse into the region’s rich cultural heritage. The beautiful city of Alicante, with its iconic Santa Bárbara Castle and charming old town, is also only a 45-minute drive away – perfect for a day trip.
As the sun sets, La Zenia comes alive – with many bars, pubs, tavernas, and chiringuitos (beach bars) serving authentic local cuisine and drinks late into the night. Many venues also feature live music, ensuring you can enjoy a fun evening showing off your moves under the stars.
La Zenia seamlessly blends relaxation and excitement, making it an excellent destination for families, couples, and solo travellers. With its beautiful beaches, vibrant shopping, diverse dining options, and close proximity to Costa Blanca’s cultural attractions, La Zenia has it all.

There are also smaller, original boutiques selling haute couture clothing. Martí adds, ‘If all that shopping tires you out, pop over to the art nouveau Colon Market. It's evolved into an epicurean food hall and is a go-to, not just for the nibbles but for the design of the building itself. It's a good spot to take a break at one of the cafés.'
