Alicante weather

Most of the lucky locals will tell you that Alicante's weather is one of the best things about the city, with its good, year-round climate. If you're looking for the beach, but not the burn, check out the city in the summer months when the weather in Alicante rarely strays past the pleasant high twenties. And if it's the cold you want to avoid then why not come during winter, where you'll find the forecast is for surprisingly mild average temperatures. With weather as good as this, any time is a good time to come to Alicante.

Tips

. . .
1/3

For Spain's best festival commemorating the Christian conquest over the Moors head to the town of Alcoy, north of Alicante. Late April sees it transformed into a huge battleground, where 28 armies do battle over 4 days.

2/3

Whilst Alicante is a very safe city, just watch your bags in the crowded areas at night. There are some pickpockets here who would make the Artful Dodger blush.

3/3

If you like your beaches with a few less bodies, grab the tram eight kilometres up the coast to San Juan Beach with its host of amenities and water sports galore.
