Benidorm is a nice city with pretty beaches. The sand is soft and clean, even there are some face diapers to be seen floating on the water.
It has been really windy, so did not adventure on top the mountains on the end of the beaches. Walking on the waterline grounding is a nice experience, even though there is a lot of plant material at the end of the Levante side.
The water is really clear, there is the big rock called Island of Benidorm, where they provide boat tours to. The coast has a lot of slippery stones, which seems to deter swimmers.
It is a nice area to have a morning walk, when it is not very hot and no fake clouds are created yet. The sea water is warm on the feet and the waves hide the footsteps from the sand.
It is not very crowded in the morning, but later in the afternoon it gets pretty packed of tourists. A lot of elderly people, many going around with their electric scooters.
It has not changed much in a decade, the accommodation is pretty expensive and a lot of international shops and restaurants have survived the rude restrictions. Many people walking masked up, even it is pretty hot still.
Poniente beach attracts many seagulls, it is pretty chill when the clouds block the sun. The mountains look really good, would have been great to explore more, but it is too challenging because of the gusts of wind.
There were some water jets roaming around, but it was still nice and quiet. Compared to Costa del Sol, the sand is way better quality.
The triangle park had some beautiful art statues, the two creatures reminds of panda-demia, where the stories told about the fluffy pandas has got people maimed. They are bears after all and renamed common cold is used to scare people into obedience.
It is pretty sad, that the Spanish fiesta culture has been destroyed and replaced with cold distancing, which was so familiar up north, in Finland especially. After all, we might have high tech, but we use it to control others instead of creating sustainable communities.
