About Benidorm

From being just a fishing village Benidorm grew to become a major holiday destination, and one of Spain's most infamous tourist hot spots. It was renowned for having the best tuna fishermen in the country until the middle of the 20th century, when the industry went into decline and mass tourism took over. Benidorm has never looked back since.

Love it or hate it, the sprawling spread of high rise hotels lining the region of Spanish coastline known as the Costa Blanca is thronged with sun-seeking visitors twelve months of the year. People fly in from all over the world, and especially from the United Kingdom, to make the most of Benidorm's miles and miles of sandy beaches, bathe in the warm Mediterranean Sea, and let their hair down with the city's lively nightlife.

There is more to Benidorm than seaside holiday antics and British bars though. Its Old Town is a delight of whitewashed houses adorned with decorative blue tiles, parks where the pathways are lined with palm trees, historic watchtower ruins, churches and museums. There are broad avenues lined with high-end stores, shopping malls and several markets selling a variety of goods and fresh local produce.

Luggage storage in Benidorm

Going to the beach in Benidorm with bags is just not practical. Nor is visiting museums, galleries or theme parks with baggage. Many places won't allow you entrance if you have bulky baggage with you, and most don't have on-site storage facilities either. To make sure you don't ruin your day by getting turned away at the entrance to wherever you're going, store your bags at one of the Bounce luggage locker sites in Benidorm.

Attractions and activities near Benidorm

• Tabarca Island: Escape from the mayhem of Benidorm to the quieter landscapes of Tabarca Island. Jump aboard a boat in Benidorm harbor and enjoy the views of the Alicante coastline during the one and a half hours of sailing to Spain's smallest inhabited island. It's not its size that makes Tabarca special, but the fact it is a marine reserve, although you won't see much of that unless you go diving or snorkeling.

Once you've disembarked at Tabarca Island you can explore fort ruins, the beach-lined coves, and photograph the lighthouse before hiking from one end to the other. Don't worry, it doesn't take long as the island measures less than two kilometers long and four hundred meters wide. Leave room on the island for other visitors by dropping your bags at a Bounce luggage locker in Benidorm.

• Alicante: Catch the FGV tram from Benidorm to Alicante and spend a day exploring the capital city of the province. The tram ride takes around an hour and runs parallel to the coast so you'll get great sea views part of the way as well as a look at quite a lot of the Costa Blanca.

There's lots to see in Alicante but start out on the right foot by strolling along the seafront promenade before visiting the Santa Barbara Castle, the hilltop Santa Cruz hermitage, and wandering around the historic Old Town. If you don't want to walk too much, use the city's tourist bus service, the turibus. It goes past all the main sights and you can get on and off as many times as you like. You won't be bothered with your bags during your day out if you leave them at a Bounce luggage locker in Benidorm before you get on the tram or alternatively, use a Bounce luggage locker in Alicante to store your bags whilst there.

• Serra Gelada Natural Park: Visiting Benidorm doesn't have to be all about city streets, beaches, and non-stop nightlife. Along the coast from Benidorm is a fifty-square-kilometer area known as the Serra Gelada Natural Park. The park is a natural wilderness with rugged landscapes where you can hike in peaceful solitude and look back across the bay to the mayhem of Benidorm you've escaped from. It's an impressive sight from a distance. The Serra Gelada Natural Park is also a marine reserve and a superb spot for snorkeling and scuba diving. If you're a fan of either, the coastal caves and rock arches are unmissable.
