Private transfer from Alicante Airport to Altea
Transfer to your hotel in Altea. No changes, fixed price.
To Altea - the domes above the sea
Altea is 70 km from Alicante airport, and the drive takes ~57 min on the AP-7 past Benidorm.
There is no direct bus from the airport: first to Benidorm, then the tram to Altea. Altea is a town on a hill above the sea: a white old town on the hilltop, the blue domes of the church and pebble coves beneath it. The hotels here stand both by the sea on the promenade and up by the old town - the climb on foot with suitcases is steep, so the driver takes you right to the door.
Econom - the most affordable: a Toyota, Hyundai or similar, up to three people with standard luggage. Eco - an electric or hybrid business-class car, a Tesla or Lexus, up to three people with standard luggage. Business - a business-class saloon (Mercedes E-Class, BMW 5 Series, Audi A6), up to three people with standard luggage. Van - the choice for families and groups: seven seats, and the boot takes a pushchair, skis or a snowboard alongside the suitcases. Premium - meeting guests and special occasions: a car a class above Business, up to three passengers. Bus - a minibus for groups: up to sixteen passengers with their luggage.

Where you'll arrive
What awaits you in Altea
Those postcard blue domes. The church of Mare de Déu del Consol stands at the top of the old town: two domes clad in glazed blue-and-white ceramic above a square of whitewashed houses - the image people take home from this coast more than any other. Around it the old quarter winds up cobbled, steep, deliberately narrow lanes with sudden views of the bay, and behind the town to the north stands the Sierra de Bernia ridge.
The beaches here are pebble, and that is a trade-off. There is no golden sand in Altea: La Roda runs along the promenade in the centre, Cap Negret and L'Olla stretch north beyond the marina. Pebbles mean noticeably clearer water - a joy for swimmers and snorkellers - and a need for beach shoes. The walk along the shore between the marina and the old town is the whole of flat Altea; everything else is uphill.
Quieter than its neighbours, by choice. Benidorm's towers are twenty minutes along the coast and visible from the headland, but Altea stayed low-rise and drew artists and craftspeople; the upper streets are taken up by small galleries and workshops. The Palau Altea theatre runs all year, and on the Saturday nearest 10 August the Castell de l'Olla puts on a big fireworks display over the sea from L'Olla beach, watched from the sand and from boats.
From the airport it is 70 km, ~57 min heading north. The streets of the old town are steep and almost all closed to cars, so the drop-off point matters more here than in most towns.
