Torrevieja Area – city life, beaches and attractive residential areas
Torrevieja is a lively and popular coastal town on the southern Costa Blanca that has attracted Danish homebuyers for many years, both for holiday homes and year-round living. The town is located directly on the Mediterranean and is known for its long seaside promenade, good beaches, a wide range of shops, restaurants and cafés, as well as a modern hospital. Torrevieja is a proper town with life all year round, making everyday living easy and convenient for those who choose to settle here.
With around 85,000 permanent residents – and significantly more during the high season – Torrevieja is one of the larger towns on the Costa Blanca. This ensures that shops, services and activities remain open throughout the year. At the same time, the town is well connected to the surrounding areas and is located approximately 45 minutes by car from Alicante Airport, making travel easy for both homeowners and visiting family or friends.
When referring to the Torrevieja area, it is important to note that it includes more than just the town centre. Surrounding Torrevieja are several attractive residential areas that many Danish buyers prefer, as they combine proximity to the town with more peaceful and green surroundings. Areas such as La Mata, Los Balcones, Torreta Florida and Punta Prima are all close to beaches, nature and shopping, while offering a more relaxed atmosphere than the busy town centre.
La Mata is well known for its wide sandy beach and the natural park located just behind the town, while Los Balcones and Torreta Florida appeal to those looking for villa-style living and more space. Punta Prima is located close to the coast and offers modern properties with easy access to both the beach and local restaurants. What these areas have in common is the balance between tranquillity and easy access to Torrevieja’s facilities.
The Torrevieja area also offers excellent opportunities for an active lifestyle. Several golf courses are located within a 10–20 minute drive, and there are good cycling and walking paths, as well as opportunities for water sports, local markets and cultural events. This combination of city life, beaches and leisure activities makes the area attractive to couples, singles and families alike.
This flexibility is exactly what makes the Torrevieja area so popular:
you can choose vibrant city life or quieter residential surroundings – without giving up beaches, amenities and good infrastructure. For many Danes, Torrevieja is a safe and versatile choice when dreaming of a property on the Costa Blanca, whether for holidays, part-time living or permanent residence in Spain.
