The Costa Blanca North – just the name already sounds like holidays, sunshine, and a relaxed lifestyle.

But for many, this beautiful coastal region in the north of the Alicante province, Spain, has become not only a holiday destination but also a true home. If you are thinking about moving your life to the Mediterranean, or simply dreaming of a Mediterranean lifestyle, keep reading!

What makes Costa Blanca North so special?

Unlike the livelier south, the northern part of the Costa Blanca impresses with its spectacular natural scenery and exclusive charm. The coastline here is shaped by dramatic cliffs, green hills, and picturesque bays (the so-called Cala’s) – perfect to escape everyday life. No wonder it is often called “Mallorca on the mainland”!

Highlights awaiting you:
👉 Diverse towns: Imagine choosing between cosmopolitan towns like Jávea (Xàbia) or Denia with their lively harbours – or an idyllic mountain village like Jalón (Xaló), nestled in the famous wine valley. Elegant Moraira and the “white city”   Altea with its iconic blue-domed church are also waiting for you.
👉 The climate: According to the WHO, this region offers one of the healthiest climates in the world. With more than 300 days of sunshine a year and mild winters, life here is pleasant all year round.
👉 Quality of life: The relaxed Mediterranean lifestyle takes centre stage. Your day might start with a coffee on the terrace, continue with a walk by the sea, and end with a long comida with fresh local products.
👉 Leisure & gastronomy: Sailing, hiking in the Sierra de Bernia, playing golf, or enjoying Valencia’s excellent cuisine – boredom simply doesn’t exist here. You will fall in love with fish, rice dishes (Paella!) and fantastic wines from the inland.

The real estate market:

The region is especially popular with international buyers, which means a wide range of properties:
👉 Modern villas with infinity pools and sea views.
👉 Traditional fincas surrounded by orange or olive groves.
👉 Stylish apartments near the beach or in charming old towns like Denia and Jávea.
