...we stay in Torrevieja. Torrevieja is in Costa Blanca Southern Spain. Torrevieja is accessed from the main coast road - the N332
We normally land in Alicante, but this time our flights were changed and we were flying into Murcia airport. When in the plane, looking out the window, it looks nice you are coming to land over the sea and onto the runway. Murcia airport is a former military base. This airport I have to say is the smallest ive seen. Torrevieja ... ...at on your journey to Torrevieja its just Barron land. Few trees here and there. Once you're in Torrevieja it is spot the crane.

Advantages: Lovely Weather Disadvantages: Looks like a building site, traffic terrible
...so good haha...
Anyway, Torrevieja is a nice place though it seems half finished with pavements and houses being built all over the place.
There are lots of places to eat out, with various choices, Chinese, Mexican, Spanish (of course), Italian, Japanese and so on. The local fish market is excellent you can buy everything from crabs to shark steak. The sea food in the restaurants is generally very good too.

The beaches are also lovely and if you look hard enough you can find almost deserted stretches of lovely beaches (with life guards in attendance! - which I was suprised about, being that on some of the beaches there were only about 5-10 people).
