Picture
Altea is one of the prettiest towns on Spain's Costa Blanca and delights travellers from all over the world. Its beautiful marina and seafront promenade are very popular, with many nice restaurants and bars where you can enjoy everything from a simple cup of coffee to a delicious meal. But what sets Altea apart from the rest,  is its old town, situated on a hill, crowned by the beautiful landmark church of Nuestra Señora Virgen del Consuelo. A labyrinth of small streets bordered by old white-walled houses, many of which have been turned into cosy restaurants and shops,  lead you to the square in front of the
church. All your senses will come alive, as many geraniums, orange trees, jazmin, galan de noche create color and aroma, and live music can be heard especially in summer. This is Spain at its best, not just a place for tourists but also an authentic Spanish town. Altea has always been popular with artists and you will find potters,
painters and many other craftsmen. Apart from all the shops there is also a craft fair on the church square during the summer month.The view from the church square is fantastic and reaches from Calpe and it's Peñon de Ifach over the whole bay and up to Benidorm with its remarkable sky-line.
2019 : Altea has been chosen as "Cultural Capital of the Valencian Community" due to it's excellent cultural programme. (Fabulous fire-works on the 2nd Saturday in August and Moors and Christians parades in Sept. are among my favourite) Check out this web-site:
