Costa Blanca South

Costa Blanca is divided into southern (from Alicante to Pilar de la Horadada) and northern (from Alicante to Denia) parts. The south of the coast is characterized by a flat landscape. Within 8 km there are mountain ranges that block the colder air masses. This is one of the factors which ensure a comfortable climate in the area. The average annual temperature is +20°C and the weather is warm and sunny for 300 days a year.

The Costa Blanca attracts tourists with the following features:

• Spacious beaches with clean sand, dunes, beautiful coves and palm groves.

Features of the property market in the southern Costa Blanca

The southern part of Costa Blanca has more affordable properties than the northern part. This is due to the fact that the north has more varied and picturesque natural scenery, there are rail connections through many of the resort towns and in some of them, the area is protected by the local authorities. Over the last 5-7 years, many new and modern housing developments have been constructed on the south coast. People from the CIS countries are buying property there and demand is increasing. For example, Torrevieja has a large Ukrainian diaspora and the Association of Ukrainians is very active.

It is important to note that property values on the southern coast remain relatively low when compared to similar properties on the other Spanish coasts.
