Guardamar is popular with tourists and has a strong Spanish influence with many local restaurants and tapas bars.
Prettier than other coastal towns, it has many shops, restaurants and bars, plus the beaches and parks. It is an historic town with many modern sporting / leisure facilities, including a large sports centre and pool. Go carts nearby.
Large Sunday market nearby with a huge variety of stalls.
As an alternative to the 14km of Blue Flag beaches with a number of beach bars, visit Alicante for fantastic shopping, or Murcia and Cartagena for large historic towns with plenty of interest.
Torrevieja has extensive shopping with evening street markets, a fairground and pedestrianised sea front & smart marina.
Visit water parks at Quesada or Torrevieja or the huge Aqualandia further North. El Rancho has a Olympic pool and horse riding, Mar Menor is 45 minutes to the South. Terra Mitica, Spain’s first real theme park is 1 hour to the North
