La Nucia
La Nucía sits inland from the coast, high enough for cooler nights and clear views to the sea. What sets it apart is the Ciudad Deportiva — a sports complex of a size you would expect in a capital city, with Olympic pools, athletics tracks and tennis academies where European teams come to train in winter.
Around it the town is green and residential: villas with gardens, quiet streets, and two of the region's best international schools nearby. The beaches of Benidorm and Altea are fifteen minutes down the hill.
- Ciudad Deportiva Camilo Cano — one of Europe's best municipal sports complexes
- International schools nearby: Elian's British School, AIS
- Elevated position: cooler summers, views to the sea and the mountains
- Benidorm and Altea beaches in 15 minutes, Alicante airport in 50
Here you will feel at home if you want a garden, clean air and good schools, with the coast close enough for an afternoon swim.
