Discover Alicante By Car

Alicante is a city you can enjoy at your own pace. In the centre, you’ll find historic streets, vibrant squares, local restaurants, and bars. The Old Town is perfect for a wander, especially in the evening, with great views from the hilltop castle.

The seafront is another highlight. It’s easy to spend a few hours strolling along the marina or along the Explanada de España without needing a plan.

Having a car opens up the surrounding area too. Just outside the city, you can reach:

San Juan Beach and Playa de Muchavista, ideal for a quieter day by the sea, with parking, beach bars, and a more relaxed vibe than the city centre.
Elche, home to Europe’s largest palm grove (a UNESCO World Heritage site ) and a historic centre worth visiting.
Villajoyosa, a colourful coastal town with a relaxed feel. Stop by the Valor Chocolate Museum for free, it's definitely perfect for a day out with family.

Inland, there are villages like Jijona and Busot, perfect for day trips. In Jijona, explore the castle ruins and the famous nougat shops, while in Busot you shouldn’t miss the Canelobre Caves, a natural wonder with breathtaking stalactites.

Food is a big part of the Valencian Community. Along the coast, enjoy fresh seafood like grilled sardines, calamari, or the classic paella. Inland, try rice dishes such as arroz a banda or fideuà. With your own car, it’s easy to find family-run restaurants, bakeries, and local markets away from the busier tourist spots.

Frequently Asked Questions about Car Hire in Alicante

Can I choose the model of the car?

We are never able to confirm the make, model or colour of the car you will receive. Your booking isn’t associated with a specific vehicle (make or model, colour, equipment etc) but is for a group of vehicles with similar characteristics. In the event that the requested group is not available you will be given a vehicle from a higher group at no extra cost.

Can I extend my car rental booking once I have picked up the car?

You will be able to extend your booking as long as the hire company permits extensions and provided that the car is available for the extra days. Please note that you will need to go to the local office to sign the contract extension. Failure to do so can invalidate the insurance and result in a penalty charge for not extending the contract on time.
