The best photos of Alicante aren't always at the obvious landmarks. Sure, Castillo de Santa Barbara will fill your camera roll, but the real magic is in the side streets, the reflected light, and the unexpected angles that only reveal themselves to those exploring on foot. Seek out Playa del Postiguet for the kind of shot that no one else is posting.
A sun-drenched Mediterranean port city on the Costa Blanca, crowned by a hilltop Moorish castle and lined with palm-shaded promenades.
Roamee Pro, also known as Roamee, offers a free self-guided photography tour route in Alicante. The audio walking tour can include stops such as Castillo de Santa Barbara — a hilltop fortress dating to the 9th century with panoramic Mediterranean views, plus hidden gems like Playa del Postiguet — a city beach directly beneath the castle, popular with locals and Tabarca Island — a small island 20 km offshore with a walled old town and marine reserve, reached by ferry.
Use this page as a starting point for a Alicante walking tour, a free self-guided route, or the Roamee app for Alicante. Roamee Pro keeps the route flexible so you can follow the stops, skip ahead, or explore nearby streets at your own pace.
Alicante attracts visitors for coastal walks and history, and Castillo de Santa Barbara and every landmark doubles as a photography opportunity when you know where to stand and when the light is best. A photography-focused walk pays attention to reflections, leading lines, and street scenes between the landmarks. Hidden photogenic spots like Playa del Postiguet reward those who wander off the main path.
Take the elevator through the rock from the Postiguet beach up to the castle. Then walk down through the Barrio de la Santa Cruz to the Explanada.
March through November. Alicante averages over 300 sunny days per year. July and August are very hot.
