VILLA FINCA
Costa Blanca El Refugio
High quality beaches and coves
crystal clear water, long sandy beaches, secluded bays ...
​
..that distinguishes the approximately 200km coastline of the Costa Blanca. Crystal clear water, long beaches with fine sand or gravel, cliffs on the blue horizon that protect the bays.
Due to the warm water, you can still enjoy these in autumn and in winter the bays heat up wonderfully.
Let yourself be inspired by the turquoise blue water, its incredible seabed and the maritime nature reserves.
Extensive sandy beaches, secluded pebble beach bays, ... a tremendously varied coastline with a common denominator: the cleanliness and services of its beaches, which are provided every year by the "Asociación de Educación Ambiental y del Consumo" the EU blue flag is awarded.
The list of beaches on the Costa Blanca is very long and we only want to name those that are
1. are in the immediate vicinity of the Villa Finca Costa Blanca,
2. We learned to love during our stay and do not want to miss it anymore.
