Things to do in Millena

Long-time Benidorm residents, families, couples and partygoers all descend upon the glorious setting of Levante Beach (Playa de Levante). This coastal treasure in one of Spain’s busiest resorts is the ideal place to cool off from the hot summer sun and go swimming in the Mediterranean Sea. Levante Beach is where the sun first shines on the town. Come early to watch the sunrise and stick around to watch the action unfold.

Whether you want to decompress amid the charm of the Mediterranean or explore hiking trails, Cala de Finestrat (Finestrat Cove Beach) has something for all kinds of beachgoers. This popular bay forms part of Spain’s glorious Costa Blanca coastline. Spend your vacation switching between the sand and sea at Cala de Finestrat. Enjoy lovely seaside views and watch magnificent sunsets.

Hang out with locals and dine at waterfront restaurants at Poniente Beach (Playa de Poniente). Stretching west from the Old Town, Poniente Beach has almost 1.9 miles (3 kilometers) of soft golden sand and warm Mediterranean water to enjoy. The beach’s name derives from the Latin word for setting (or west) and this is where you’ll witness the day’s last moments of sunshine in Benidorm.

Terra Natura is a zoo whose vast enclosures contain exotic animals from across the globe. Its innovative zoo immersion design makes barriers invisible, allowing you to get closer to the majestic creatures without looking through cages. Travel through the zoo’s diverse sections of Asia, Europa, América and Pangea.

Aqua Natura is a large and popular water park, with an artificial beach and twirling slides, outside Benidorm. The site is split into a few sections, including a children’s pool, a water slide area and a lighthouse breakwater. Sunbathe on the deck chairs lining the sandy strand and order drinks from the bars and cafés.

Follow the labyrinth of streets and steep harbor-side steps that lead to Balcón del Mediterráneo and be rewarded with one of the best views of Benidorm, one of the Costa Blanca’s most celebrated cities. The platform has been painted crisp white, so it stands out against the blue water.
