Only a ten-minute drive from Alicante Airport lies the thriving coastal town of Santa Pola. A hotspot for Costa Blanca property searchers, Santa Pola draws in visitors who enjoy its excellent location and its warm, sunny climate.

Santa Pola offers an abundance of attractions, such as amusement parks, a safari park, and a cinema to keep the whole family entertained. For something more leisurely, the town’s beachfront promenade is a great place to enjoy a gentle evening stroll or a spot of shopping. Nature lovers can explore impressive local features, such as the nearby salt lakes teeming with different bird species and wildlife, or the Santa Pola Lighthouse, which has its own skywalk and stunning views of natural scenery.

Throughout the long summer months, Santa Pola’s highly rated beaches (most of which are south-facing) are ideal for soaking up the Spanish sunshine or cooling down in the crystal-clear waters of the Mediterranean Sea. 

One of the best ways to see the town’s stunning marina is by boat. There are a number of excursions on offer, one of the most popular being a trip over to the nearby Tabarca Island. Home to around 80 people, this tiny island holds a lot of history. For a great day out, why not explore the island’s historical sites or sit back and relax at one of its rocky coves.

Also nearby to Santa Pola, the major cities of Alicante and Elche offer a huge array of facilities, such as modern shopping complexes, bustling nightlife, and several excellent golf courses.

With so much to offer all year round, it’s easy to see why people flock to Santa Pola each year, and why many expats now call this town home. For more information about properties in this area, simply get in touch with one of our team members today.
