Alicante is the gateway to the Costa Blanca - ideal for a beach holiday with a distinctly Spanish flavour. Built on a grand scale with a busy port, Alicante offers a wide range of tapas bars and restaurants together with a vibrant nightlife. The last weekend in June should not be missed as the Hogueras San Juan fiesta takes place - a colourful, atmospheric street carnival Monarch gives you convenient, low cost cheap 2012 flights to Alicante that you can book direct!
