Torrevieja area / Los Altos area
Torrevieja itself a tourist resort whose life resolves around sea and salt. The two lagoons are interconnected and from La Mata, they enjoy a direct outlet to the sea via the Acequion channel. The salt of Torrevieja-a town lying 48 kilometres (29 miles) from Alicante-is exported to all parts of world from the local port. At the far end of the Paseo Maritimo (seafront promenade) are the wharves where the freighters load salt bound for Cuba. These same ships return to the lilt of island habaneras (a style of Cuban Song), a tradition that adds zest to the extremely popular choral music contest sponsored by the town each summer.
It creates tourist area of real quality, thereby ensuring that the large numbers of visitors are properly catered for. Punta prima, Playa Flaminca, Lazenia, Cabo Roig and Dehesa de Campoamor are just some of the resorts dotted along this southern rout.
