What to do and see in Benidorm, Valencian Country: The Best Budget-friendly Things to do

April 2, 2022 Timmy Ribble

Bask on four miles of golden beaches, hit the Mediterranean Sea on water skis or stroll along Benidorm's promenade and revel in its seaside charms; it's a true Spanish beauty of the Costa Blanca. Originally a fishing town, the city's historic center wows with its blue-domed 18th-century church and picturesque alleyways. Panoramic views reward those who climb into the surrounding Canfali hills, and nearby rocky coves reveal underwater riches for scuba enthusiasts. End a day in the sun with a feast of local seafood.

This is the sort of place you can go And no one cares what you like, Are or gender. It’s brilliant with a great live free performance every night by one of the acts and is usually hosted by Tina who has a very cheeky side to her humour so it makes it all the much better. Overall a lovely place and a great night out

Reviewed By GrahamR94 - Blackpool, United Kingdom

I have used costa Blanca transfers now well over ten times and the level of service has been excellent. Time keeping cleanliness of the vehicles and politeness of the drivers has been first class. Never once has the driver been late I am sure they must wait round the corner so as to be so punctual, and as you pay on arrival it helps stop any scams that can some times happen when giving card details on line, so many thanks to all at Costa Blanca transfers for the excellent service you have provided me with during the last few years

The Cookery School is a must for anybody looking for something different to do in Benidorm. We booked on to the Tapas class and were treated to a fantastic lesson from our host Jesus. He's a great teacher and made our evening really enjoyable. We cooked five Tapas dishes and nothing was rushed. We could then enjoy the food with a glass of wine and a lovely chat with Jesus. Would definitely return.

We visited Lockdown Escape Room twice in Sep 2019. Our Agent Leaders were Carla for the Zombie Room and Trisha for Cold War Room. Highly recommend doing both Escape Rooms and maybe even the 3rd if you get the chance, we came back for more because we had such an amazing time. The most exciting attraction to do in Benidorm, hands down!

Benidorm Old Town

Reviewed By gerald481 - Plymouth, United Kingdom

Took the trouble to have a day out to visit the old town for the first time on my third visit to Benidorm. I absolutely loved it wandering through the narrow streets and boulevards stopping at various venues for drink or two a complete more relaxed way to enjoy Benidorm and for me and I am sure for many a hidden gem that will have me returning for a longer stay in fact a weeklong stay here is very much on the cards later this year
