Altea

Coastal town

Altea is a town and municipality located in the Valencian Community, Spain, on the section of Mediterranean coast called the Costa Blanca.

Read moreRead less

At present, the economy of Altea is based on tourism, which started to grow in the 1950s because of its good weather, beaches and the labyrinthine streets with whitewashed house-fronts that characterize the town. Altea is protected on the north by the bluffs of the Serra de Bèrnia, creating an especially mild microclimate. Its seafront esplanade is planted with palms.

The town is notable for being residence of a number of affluent Russian migrants.

The local larder

What almost never fails in a village like Altea.

Pan de pueblo

From a wood-fired oven if you're lucky; ask what time the batch comes out.

Queso de pastor

There's almost always a cheesemaker nearby; the local shop will know which one.

Miel de la sierra

From local beekeepers: wildflower or rosemary, depending on the hills.

Markets and local produce

Almost every village has its market day and its producers: the cheesemaker, the baker, the vegetable garden next door. Ask at the tourist office or the bar on the square; they'll tell you where to buy straight from the maker.

We haven't confirmed Altea's market day. Every village has its own: better to ask than to make it up.
