L'Albir

Albir is a small beach resort sandwiched between Altea and Benidorm on the northern Costa Blanca in Spain.

Albir is very close to Alfaz del Pi which is just slightly inland on the other side of the N-322 which divides the two areas. Albir is also referred to as El Albir or L’Albir.

Albir is situated midway between two international airports, to the south there is Alicante International airport and to the north there is Valencia international airport.

Albir has a Mediterranean climate which means hot summers with mild winters and very little rain. Albir is blessed with over 300 days of sunshine a year making it an ideal holiday destination pretty much all year round.

Albir’s main beach is called “Playa de Racó de l’Albir” and is six hundred meters in length and has magnificent views of the Penon de Ifach in Calpe. Parking can be tricky in the summer months so be sure to arrive early.

During the holiday season there are always lifeguards on duty as is the case in all the beach resorts on the Costa Blanca. The blue flag beach also has two play areas on the beach for the children.
