What our students said about Alicante
Although it is touristy, it is very safe. In August, the temperatures were between 28° and 35° during the day. The beach is ok, but more beautiful is San Juan beach, which can be reached in 15 min by tram. Alicante has many good restaurants and places to go out. Recommended for a language course, as there are not too many Germans there and you can really immerse yourself in the language.
Nice for two weeks, then a bit boring. The harbour is nice, the beach section rather small. Between the beach/promenade and the sea is a main road. I found that annoying. Generally a lot of car traffic in the city. There are not so many sights to see. A few museums were still quite good.
Based around tourism and so there are many nationalities. Still clinging on to its Spanish identity. Lovely beaches and great castle. Very lively at night. Good transport links. Overall a great place to visit for a few weeks
Alicante is a great super friendly place. Always meet great people. Beach is okay, a bit crowded but very nice sand. I was super close to center which made it dangerous for my wallet, as i like to shop.
Beautiful city, fantastic beach with beautiful Castillo Santa Barbara! The people are super nice everywhere! Alicante is a great starting point for countless trips to nearby towns!!
Cozy old center with many nice eateries, coffee bars, nightlife nice people, lovely beach and some nice sights such as an arena, a castle, a museum and a Cathedral and Basilica.
I did not participate in the evaluation. Except for the tourist hotspots, Alicante is very littered in the normal residential areas. There is also dog poo everywhere.
It's a beautiful city, but I didn't go there to visit, I went there to study Spanish. The weather was not good to visit the city, it rained a lot.
Not very clean (but I think many southern European cities have that in common, especially the ones that are much visited), apart from that nice.
Alicante is a vibrant, lively city. I felt very safe there and everywhere was regularly cleaned. It has a rich history to discover!
