This Spanish gem offers something for everyone and has been one of Brits’ favourite European destinations since the 1980s.
Since then, British tourists have consistently made up at least 30 per cent of the tourist annually.
Getting to Benidorm only takes a couple of hours from the UK, adding to its allure for Brits.
Once you touch down, you should be greeted with highs of 25C, sunny days, and virtually no chance of rain.
Benidorm is said to “meet every traveller’s needs”, from partygoers hoping to dance the night away to families searching for tranquil beach days.
A Brit who has lived in Benidorm for more than 40 years also revealed that the Old Town, Harbour Areas, and Poniente beach are “like the Miami of Benidorm“.
However, Benidorm offers more than just its white sand and crystal-clear waters.
The West Beach Promenade is a great way to experience the local culture, as it’s lined up with markets, local cafes and beautiful views.
