Alicante travel information
Alicante
Alicante is centrally located on Spain's Mediterranean coast. The air of the city is pervaded with the scents of the sea; indeed the city has been an important seaport for many centuries.
There is nothing as pleasant as strolling along the quayside promenade lined by four rows of palms, tessellated with marble in Alicante red, cream and black in imitation of the waves of the Mediterranean.
Many famous residents have spoken lovingly of the city; in the words of the poet and novelist, Juan Gil-Albert, Alicante looks uninterruptedly to the Mediterranean. Author Gabriel Miró wrote, my city is pierced through and through by the Mediterranean and another native author, Joan Fuster, wrote that Alicante is without a doubt, the friendliest of all Valencian cities, a city one would choose to live in if one were to exchange a village for a city.
Culture
The city offers an interesting range of cultural activities in various centres around town, such as the Casa de la Cultura (cultural centre), which has a well-stocked library, a historical archive and keeps locals and visitors abreast of cultural events such as expositions, conferences and films.
The Teatro Principal (Principal Theatre) is a neo-classical building dating from the 19th century, which runs an extensive programme of shows and plays throughout the year.
Excursions
There are boat trips available to the Island of Tabarca,
Jijona is only 26 km from Alicante, the birthplace of Turrón, a sticky almond sweet very popular in Spain and served at Christmas.
Close at hand are the Caves of Canelobre, a marvel of nature and just outside Alicante you can see the largest Palm Forest in Europe; on a trip to Elche you can enjoy a stroll through the subtropical environment.
Orihuela with its wide variety of Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque buildings is just 54 km from Alicante.

Vidéo récap de mon 36h. Qu'est ce que le 36h ?
C’est une course humanitaire où le but est d’aller le plus loin en Europe sans dépenser son argent personnel et financer le voyage avec des dons ou bien récolter de l’argent dans la rue...
Notre sponsor La Cuillette de Torfou verse 30 centimes par Km parcouru. Notre objectif était d'aller a Alicante, ce qui fait 1556Km soit plus 446 euros pour l'association CARE France.

Drone footage of Spain: Javea, Denia & Moraira. With Chakra healing music, 384 Hz, Throat Chakra.
The Track, Buy here:
Please watch in 1080!
Please read this full description for more information on the making of this video.
This was shot during a weeks holiday in 2013 to Javea on the east coast of Spain, a town in the province of Alicante, by the Mediterranean.
As an drone enthusiast the first thing on the list of things to pack for our holiday was my DJI PHANTOM DRONE, (see full equipment used below) and I couldn't wait to get it in the air to capture this stunning location.
We also ventured out in a hire car and filmed spots in nearby towns Denia (about 15 minutes drive north of Javea) and Moraira (about 20 minutes drive south of Javea)
After viewing the footage, I couldn't believe how stunning this part of the world was, and I was incredibly proud of the footage I had captured as I had only been flying the drone for just a few weeks.
Javea is one of the healthiest places on earth with 320 days sunshine each year!
More on Javea here:
This track was written and produced by me, the story of how this track came to be is a very interesting one.
Firstly you must understand that all of our music that we currently listen to is tuned to 440 Hz, this is the reference pitch that all our music is based upon, A = 440 Hz.
This reference pitch was endorsed in 1953.
Before this endorsement the reference pitch for music was A = 432 Hz.
So why was it changed from 432 Hz?
A quote from confucious:
IF ONE SHOULD DESIRE TO KNOW WHETHER A KINGDOM IS WELL GOVERNED, IF ITS MORALS ARE GOOD OR BAD, THE QUALITY OF ITS MUSIC WILL FURNISH THE ANSWER....
Confucious was talking about the tuning of music.
There is some worrying evidence out there that 440 Hertz tuning is not good and could be harmful particularly when exposed to for long periods of time.
How often do you listen to music?
Most music worldwide has been tuned to 440 hertz since the International Standards Organization (ISO) endorsed it in 1953. The recent rediscoveries of the vibratory / oscillatory nature of the universe indicate that this contemporary international concert pitch standard may generate an unhealthy effect or anti-social behavior in the consciousness of human beings.
The powers that be are successfully lowering the vibrations of not only the young generation but the rest of us as well. These destructive frequencies entrain the thoughts towards disruption, disharmony and disunity. Additionally, they also stimulate the controlling organ of the body - the brain - into disharmonious resonance, which ultimately creates disease and war.
Freaky quotes eh? Click this link to read more about the change from 432 to 440 Hz
There is a lot of information out there regarding the change from 432 to 440, understand what has been done to our music!
To summarise 440 Hz = Bad
432 Hz = Good :)
These videos by Jamie Buturff are a must if you want to understand the significance in this change from 432 to 440 Hz
There is a lot of information here about the ancient solfeggio healing frequencies in 432 Hz.
Here are the ancient solfeggio healing frequencies according to Jamie Burtuff:
A = 216, 432 or 864 Hz - CROWN CHAKRA
(216 Hz is an octave lower than 432, 864 Hz an octave higher than 432 Hz)
D = 144, 288 or 576 Hz - 3RD EYE CHAKRA
G = 192, 384 or 768 Hz - THROAT CHAKRA
C = 128, 256 or 512 Hz - HEART CHAKRA
F# = 182, 364 or 728 Hz - SOLAR PLEXUS CHAKRA
Eb = 303, 606 or 1212 Hz - SACRAL CHAKRA
Bb = 228, 456 or 912 Hz - ROOT CHAKRA
After much research with friends on this subject and subsequently learning the association of these frequencies with the human chakra system, I decided that 432 Hz is the frequency nature intended for music, so I decided to start making music in the 432Hz tuning
The track you are hearing on this video is designed for the THROAT chakra, hence it is in 384 Hz and that is the tone that you can hear at the start and throughout the track.
So whilst you are viewing these wonderful locations in Spain you are also being healed with an ancient solfeggio healing frequency!

Denia
Denia is a delightful cosmopolitan town located along the Mediterranean coastline, where the sun shines almost all year. Its climate of mild temperatures and its 20 kms of sandy beaches and rocky coves makes Denia an ideal place for family beach holidays.
Situated 110 kilometres from Alicante airport, (approximately 1 hour 20 minutes) and 95 km from the city of Valencia. The town faces north-east, looking out across the sea towards the Balearic islands.
Denia has a sophisticated infrastructure, with a marina offering 546 moorings and a full range of services.
History
The town sits at the foot of a hill crowned by a castle, which was the residence of the erstwhile Marquis of Denia; of note are the towers if Mig, Galliner and Carsell.
The city has well preserved ancient walls and bastions. From the hilltop esplanade there is an excellent view of Denia and its surrounding countryside.
Among the monuments in the town worthy of a visit are the 18th-century church of the Asunción; the 17th-century Atarazanas (dockyards); the cloister and church of San Antonio and the 18th -century, neoclassical town hall building.
Just outside the town you can visit the hermitages of the conquest- Sant Joan (gothic), Santa Paula and Santa Lucía (gothic), constructed in the 14th and 15th centuries, and also the Torre del Gerro (17th C.) located on the cliff next to the cape of San Antonio.
Beaches
Denia enjoys almost twenty kilometres of coastline. To the north of the town, there are beaches of fine sand and shallow waters, such as Les Marines, LAlmadrava, Les Deveses, Les Bovetes and els Palmars, To the south lie a series of small coves along the rocky coast, known as Les Rotes, which is a paradise for fishermen and divers.
Natural surroundings
Denia lies in a fertile plain, backed by mountains. The Montgó Mountain, which separates Denia and Javea, is the major landmark of the area.
Recreation and Leisure
Denia offers a variety of water sports, including: sailing, windsurfing, diving, fishing, rowing, and swimming.
For those who prefer land to sea, there is also an extensive range of activities to choose from: mountain climbing, hang-gliding, mountain biking and hiking.
Golf
Denia has its own 18-hole golf club, located very close to the town, the Club La Sella was designed by José Maria Olazabal. Further courses can be found at Oliva, Moriara, and Javea.
Eating out
There are many welcoming restaurants along the promenade facing the marina. The marina itself has a modern commercial area where you can dine overlooking the moored yachts bobbing in the water.
Excursions
It’s possible to take the ferry to the Balearic islands directly from the port in Denia.
Cuisine
The local cuisine of Denia is typically that of the Costa Blanca, which combines delicacies from both land and the Mediterranean Sea. Many civilizations have lived in this area (Celts, Iberians, Greeks, Romans, Muslims), all of which have all left their mark on the gastronomy.
The diet in Denia is a healthy Mediterranean one; the Costa Blanca is rich in fish, vegetables, olive-oil, rice and fruit and the ingredients which are all used to prepare delicious, healthy dishes, such as Paella Valenciana, Arroz Negro (black rice), Arroz al horno (Oven baked rice), Arroz a banda (fish and rice stew), Arroz del Señoret (Princes rice).
Aside from seafood, typical dishes include succulent lamb chops, rabbit in garlic, roast leg of lamb with garlic and fresh rosemary, and home made sausages and black puddings.
If you have a sweet tooth then you will enjoy the local homemade pastries and deserts that the whole region is famous for. Or Jijona ice-cream (Nougat), which is made with the almonds of the region.
Whilst in Denia we recommend you try the local wine selection on offer, especially Jalon wine a which is of high quality with a lovely bouquet.
There are many international restaurants in the town offering a wide choice of different cuisines from around the world.
Climate
Denia enjoys a typical Mediterranean climate, with cool sea breezes in summer and protection by surrounding mountains against the cold North winds in winter. The area averages nearly 3,000 hours of sunshine each year and the average temperature easily exceeds 20 degrees.
In 1986 the World Health Organisation recommended the climate of the area as one of the most equitable in the world - neither too hot in the summer nor too cold in the winter. On average it can boast 325 sunny days each year making it an ideal all year round destination
