Hiring a taxi in Orihuela Costa is one of the most pleasant ways to stroll through this region of Spain, the second way is walking, but for long journeys it is better to get a car that someone else drives so that you can appreciate the impressive landscape.
Orihuela Costa is a municipality of Alicante and at the same time it is a paradisiacal place that combines beaches, modernity, tradition and good gastronomy. There are two different parts of the town, the downtown and the coast, and each one offers something different to the tourist.
