Alicante, a city that is caressed by the peaceful waters of the Mediterranean, welcomes thousands of tourists every year. Its good climate (it’s sunny most of the time!), delicious local cuisine, cultural identity and historic past make the province’s capital city a real must-visit location.
When asked what to do in Alicante in one day, the answer is a simple one. Despite being a large city, most places of interest are located in the city centre. This means it’s easy to get around by foot and get the most out of its potential.
We recommend taking your time, as this will allow you to enjoy the true essence of the city and get a feel for the lifestyle of the local people. Don’t think twice about taking a stroll around the beautiful historic centre, or topping up your tan on the beach. Here are the main things to see during one day in Alicante.
