Alicante is a beach resort on the eastern coast of Spain, about two hours south of Valencia. Its main historical point of interest is the 12th century Castillo de Santa Barbara, which sits on a mountain overlooking the city and the beautiful Mediterranean Sea.

The Paseo Explanada de Espana, lined with palm trees, stretches along Alicante's crowded marina
The marina, with Mount Benacantil in the distance. If you look closely, you can just make out the Castillo de Santa Barbara atop the mountain.
