Torrevieja is about 50 kilometers south of Alicante airport and is right on the coast. Torrevieja used to be a tiny fishing village (like many of the towns on the Costa Blanca) but it has witnessed a huge explosion in size and population in recent times - most of which is from the huge numbers of people moving to Torrevieja from Northern Europe or buying holiday homes in the area.

Torrevieja is surrounded by salt lakes and as a result the climate is meant to be very healthy especially for people with arthritus. The salt lakes are protected and form the habitat for numerous protected species of bird such as the greater Flamingo and Montagu’s harrier. The salt is also commercially extracted providing one of the Torrevieja's main industries.
