    😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍Hello guys, thank you for sharing these beautiful places, my father in the 20s of the last century was born in the Castle of Santa Barbara, his father was the colonel of that military base (my gradfather), he tells me that as a child he was very afraid because everything It was very big and dark, and he stayed on the stairs being cold before going to bed!! Thank you for showing the Castle in such a professional way, greetings from Malaga!!

    Alicante is one of my favourite Spanish Cities I visited the City several times and also the Costa Blanca and visited the Castle and walked along the lovely esplanade more than once. it is not a boulevard by the way. You should try Horchata it is a lovely drink and cafe con leche

    As i said in your other video we know the area very well , Alicante is a lovely city , we've been up at the castle a good few times, though we get the elevator up for 4 or 5 euros , from the tunnel entrance opposite the beach.
    See the Bullring in your video ......Tom Jones is playing there in a few months time.
    Dunno where you guys are off to now.......Benidorm is worth a visit for a walk along the Levante Beach promenade, and the old town, i'm no sure where you'd park though, but there are loads of very large caravan parks.
    Guadalest , up in the mountains 30 mins behind Benidorm is well worth a visit, it's beautifull, also Altea is nice, 10 mins past Benidorm.
    Further up you have Calpe , with it's famous landmark , the Penyal de Ifach , then onwards to Moriara, Javia then Denia (you could pop across to Ibiza) ;-)
    Anyway , enjoy and stay safe !

      Thanks for all the tips Stevie, we are actually in the north west of Spain now finishing off the Portuguese Camino! We are missing the luxuries of the van 🤣 but enjoying ourselves nonetheless. We did check out most of those places on your list just not as far up as Denia. But we had a lovely time and looking forward to sharing the rest of the adventures with you all! We climbed Ifach too!! Amazing views 🤩 the whole region was stunning 🙌🏼
