Torrevieja is the capital of the Southern Costa Blanca area. It started off as a small fishing village until it was "discovered" by the Scandinavian holiday market some time in the early seventies. Since then, it hasn't stopped growing and is home to a large expat community of British retirees.

Torrevieja isn’t a resort in the package holiday sense, there are only a few hotels and the area is much loved by the Spanish who flock here during the summer months for their holidays.

Many tourists head for Villamartin Golf because it is home to three championship golf courses - Campoamor, Las Ramblas and Villamartin.

Villamartin has grown rapidly in recent years with many British people and other Northern Europeans snapping up cheap apartments as second homes in the sun meaning a huge number of cheap villas and apartments are available to rent in this area.

Even if you are not into golf, Villamartin has plenty of attractions.

The Villamartin plaza is most certainly worth a mention. This is a square with a black and white chessboard pattern surrounded by shops, bars, cafes, banks and restaurants. In the heat of summer the atmosphere is buzzing with life and noise.

Because there are so many beaches along the coast it is possible to easily find uncrowded white sandy beaches - even in August. Examples of beaches close to Villamartin are La Zenia, Cabo Roig, Playa Flamenca and Campoamor. All of them have the European Blue Flag which signifies high standards of water cleanliness, safety and good facilities for the family.
