Eastern Spain

The East of Spain is full of life, offering a mix of vibrant cities, charming coastal towns, and quiet, authentic escapes.

In Valencia, the birthplace of paella, food takes center stage. The lively Mercado Central is perfect for tasting local produce, while the old town invites you to explore historic spots like the Silk Exchange and the impressive cathedral. On the modern side, the City of Arts and Sciences stands out with its striking architecture. And when you’re ready to relax, Malvarrosa Beach is just a short trip from the city center.

Alicante has a relaxed coastal vibe, with golden beaches and the striking Castle of Santa Bárbara watching over the city. The Explanada de España, with its palm trees and mosaics, is ideal for a quiet stroll by the sea. Not far from the city, you’ll find places like Altea, with its whitewashed houses and artistic charm, and Jávea, perfect for crystal-clear swims and scenic walks. In Denia, food lovers will enjoy its culinary reputation, while nature enthusiasts can explore the trails of Montgó Natural Park.

Murcia feels like a secret waiting to be shared. The city is full of character, from the stunning Murcia Cathedral to the elegant Real Casino. The food here is as fresh as it gets, with simple but flavorful dishes like zarangollo or pastel de carne. Just outside the city, the vineyards of Jumilla and Yecla produce excellent wines worth trying. For a quieter coastal escape, the beaches of the Costa Cálida and the Mar Menor lagoon are perfect, while the Sierra Espuña offers hiking and adventure for those craving the outdoors.

The East of Spain has its own rhythm—relaxed, sunny, and full of charm. There’s always something new to experience.
