 Marina is a town on the N332. This is the old coastal route running, along the
Costa Blanca, in the south-east of Spain, on the Mediterranean
'White' coast.
The
Town is 30 minutes drive south-west bound from Alicante Airport. About 7
miles beyond Santa Pola. (Maps)
Urbanisation:
La Marina (the Village) is built within a natural amphitheatre, on a hillside, 1 mile up from the main town
and within two
miles of a long curving, traditionally Spanish beach.
Resources:
La
Marina is a self-contained village with Supermarkets, Banks, Bars, Restaurants,
Clubs, Public pools and parks. A major benefit of La Marina is that it is an
entirely residential area.
The Beach:
The beach is maintained by the local council
and is clean and safe for bathing. There
are a few bars and restaurants but it is a family beach equally popular with the
Spanish as it is with tourists.
There
is easy access and free parking on the beach edge. There is also a wooded area
behind the beach. This is ideal for picnics and shaded walks.
Community:
 The
above features set La Marina apart from many tourist locations, which are often deserted outside the
summer months. Many people have retired and live there all year. The town
has a multi national population, which helps make La Marina an interesting
and active place to stay, all year round.
