The ClimateThis part of the Spanish coast belongs to one of the most privileged areas in Europe concerning the climate - and is also referred to as the "California of Europe". One of the important reasons for this is that the range of temperature is constant. The average temperature during the year lies around 21 ºC and the fact that there are 320 sunny days per year give you a good idea of how stable the weather is. These conditions are rarely found in any other part of the world. You will never be surprised by a sudden fall of snow as happened the last two winters in Mallorca and the north of Africa.
The Life Style
The weather conditions might well also be a reason for the easy going way of life you will find here, as well as the friendliness of people. There is no such thing as stress and the most important thing is to enjoy life. New arrivals often find it hard to adapt to this Mediterranean attitude "mañana", however, pretty soon they inhale this Mediterranean style of life and going back home becomes very difficult, if not absurd.
The Cuisine
Besides the climate and the easy way of life, the good Mediterranean food also attributes to creating the harmony of body and soul. Fresh fruit picked by yourself or from one of the many farmers markets , the use of olive oil and the fresh caught fish and seafood are a pure pleasure to eat and give the "Mediterranean Diet" its healthy and precious character.
The BeachesThe white coast, directly translated, gets her name from the endless sand beaches ranging from Valencia, in the north, to the inland sea "Mar Menor" in the south. The water quality is especially good and therefore almost all the beaches around Torrevieja have been awarded the Blue Flag of the EU, promising not only crystal clear water and clean beaches, but also modern infrastructure such as children's playgrounds, Volley ball nets and showers.
The Infrastructure
All these nice things can be enjoyed even more if the according services of daily life are available. Because of the huge amount of foreigners living here, from all parts of Europe, the infrastructure has become quite international and therefore - even if you do not speak Spanish - you will find it quite easy to get all the things you need for daily life. Modern super markets, first class medical treatment as well as a good network of banks are part of the normal service.
