About Orihuela Costa

Orihuela Costa is the coastal strip of the Orihuela municipality, just south of Torrevieja. It includes some of the best-known urbanisations on the Costa Blanca (La Zenia, Cabo Roig, Playa Flamenca, Villamartín, Punta Prima) and Blue Flag beaches such as Cala Capitán and La Glea. Zenia Boulevard, one of the largest shopping centres in the southeast, sits at the heart of the area.

It works for year-round living or long stays: services stay open in winter, there are several golf courses and the community is very international.
