Benidorm
Costa Blanca destination
Benidorm is a coastal city in eastern Spain, on the Mediterranean.
Once a small fishing village, it transformed in the mid-20th century into a mass-tourism destination known for its high-rise hotels, beaches, and nightlife.
The name evokes package holidays, British tourists abroad, and a particular style of affordable beach vacation: It's like Benidorm in August around here.
