Alicante
pearl of the Mediterranean, enjoys a wonderful climate year round with splendid beaches that earn the Blue Flag Awards from the EU every year. The Postiguet beach is in the very town centre. The area, inhabited well before the Romans, is of vital importance in the modern economy of Spain, and famous leisure destinations are not far. Because of it's significance and location, the Alicante International Airport has excellent links with many European cities. With 500,000 inhabitants, Alicante offers the advantage of a medium-sized city with a cultural life, a young and dynamic university and a booming economy with century-old traditions like the San Juan Festivities or the "Moors and Christians" celebrations, a revival of the Reconquista battles. The vast majority of people speak Spanish with no regional accent unlike Barcelona where Catalan becomes dominant.
