Living in Costa Blanca

Join Melissa Porter (best known for presenting BBC programmes To Buy or Not to Buy and Escape to the Country) in the first instalment of her tour of the Spanish Costas. Melissa starts her journey with a visit to the Costa Blanca. This stunning part of Spain has a well-developed tourist industry. It’s a particularly popular destination for holidaymakers from all over Europe but especially from Britain and Germany. The property market here is booming. Follow her fascinating trip as we travel over 200 miles all the way from the town of Dénia in the north to Torrevieja in the south, taking the major tourist destinations of Benidorm and Alicante en route.
