The disgrace of La Cala Beach in Finestrat

If you have ever visited La Cala beach in Finestrat near Benidorm you will have seen that there is a huge building still in scaffolding just in front of the beach. This building should one day become one of the largest hotels in Benidorm, hotel room-wise, unfortunately, the imposing building was never finished, and what's more, the works were stopped more than 20 years ago due to a legal issue. The original hotel would have too many floors and would therefore block the view of the sea from the buildings behind it. Something that today is otherwise little taken into account when you see the current building frenzy in the city of Benidorm. The land on which the Atrium Beach hotel, as the imposing hotel would be called, is built is owned by one of the largest hotel groups in Benidorm and the Balearic Islands. Picture by Harry Fabel The owner of the company was eventually ordered to demolish the hotel, but after years of legal discussions, the developers were fined hugely and ordered

A walk to La Cruz de Benidorm

You can have one of the most breathtaking views of Benidorm from the top of the Sierra Helada, meaning "Ice Mountain" or often referred to as "The Hill" or "La Cruz de Benidorm". La Cruz de Benidorm is a monument in honor of the Sierra Helada. It was placed on top of the hill in 1961, on a Catholic mission to purify the city of its reputation as a sin city because people were allowed to wear bikinis at the beach. Picture by Harry Fabel With the passage of time, it has changed from an evangelistic symbol to a tourist icon. In 1975 a storm caused that the cross needed to be replaced by a new one. A trip to the cross is highly recommended. Picture by Harry Fabel The road to the cross is fairly steep, but with a little condition, you can be up in an hour. Once there, you have a beautiful view, not only of Benidorm but also of the hinterland, the mountains, orange groves and the so-called "white villages". Picture by Harry Fabel

All you need to know about Benidorm

Originally, it was a tuna fishing village located on the Costa Blanca in Spain, kissed by the sun most of the year, with an ideal microclimate thanks to the protection of the mountains behind it and the Mediterranean Sea. Attracted by these exceptional conditions, in the mid-fifties, the first tourists from Northern Europe arrived and joined the national tourists, Benidorm decided to become one of the first tourist destinations. Picture: Harry Fabel The driving force behind the General Plan of 1956, which shaped the city as we know it today, was Mayor Pedro Zaragoza Orts. It was not easy, but he was a visionary. To remember the efforts made and the success achieved, the phrase De ilusión también se vive is carved in stone in the fountain at the end of the Parque de Elche. Even the illusion lives. Today, Benidorm is the first certified Smart Tourist Destination in the world. When you arrive in Benidorm, a municipality in the province of Alicante belonging to the autonomous community
