Property for Sale in Torrevieja

Foreign buyers looking for their spot along the Costa Blanca are often drawn to Torrevieja. Why? What makes Torrevieja stand out on the incredible Costa Blanca? Perhaps the answer can be found in Las Salinas de Torrevieja, the stunning rose-tinted lake that looks somewhere more of heaven than of earth. And if a pink lake is not enough to woo you, perhaps your head will turn at Torrevieja’s impressive beaches. All of Torrevieja’s beaches have been awarded a Blue Flag, recognising that they are well-facilitated, clean, and tended to. If you have young children (or are hoping that the grandkids will visit), in addition to the beach, Torrevieja has two waterparks, Aquapark Flamingo and Aquopolis Torrevieja. So, with any property for sale in Torrevieja, your days are guaranteed to be fun filled. Outdoor sports are all the rage in Torrevieja, with great options for cycling, water sports, and golf.

Additionally, Torrevieja has plenty of picks for shopping. There is the open-air market, Mercadillo de Torrevieja, which sells all kinds of trinkets and low-priced fresh fruits and vegetables – so you can have a super colourful and nutritious fridge. When you are after big brands like Zara and Sunglasses Hut, Habaneras Shopping Centre will be your go-to. For times when you are in the mood for a stroll, a nibble of tapas and a coffee, visit Sociedad Cultural Casino de Torrevieja.

Torrevieja is conveniently located roughly 40 minutes from Alicante airport. Alicante airport serves the whole of the Costa Blanca.

Torrevieja enjoys agreeable weather all year. Swimming weather for local people lasts from May through to October, but those of us used to chilly northern waters, this far south in the Mediterranean will be fine all year, with water temperatures in the twenties. August is the hottest month with an average daily maximum of 30°C. January and February are the coldest months, but still much warmer than the UK, with an average daily maximum of 16°C.

Since Torrevieja is so popular with foreign buyers, expect to be welcomed with open arms by the expat community. If that’s your thing you’ll find friends to help you navigate life in Spain, to watch the football with and places to eat a British fry-up. If you want to avoid all that, the ‘real Spain’ is on the doorstep.

If you are planning to move to Spain as a family, Torrevieja would be an excellent choice as there are multiple international schools in Alicante.
