Torrevieja is a Mediterranean seaside city on the Costa Blanca, located in southern Alicante within the Valencian Community. Moreover, the city forms one of the few fully Spanish‑speaking areas in this coastal region. Torrevieja lies about 50 kilometres south of Alicante and currently hosts a large international population. Originally, the town grew from salt production and fishing, thanks to its position between the Mediterranean Sea and two pink salt lakes. Today, Las Salinas de Torrevieja create a unique landscape that attracts visitors, residents and property buyers seeking the Costa Blanca lifestyle.
