Free things to do in Benidorm — beaches, parks, viewpoints, markets and walks that cost nothing. No ticket needed, great for families on a budget.
The balustraded viewpoint on the rocky point where Benidorm's castle once stood, dividing the Levante and Poniente beaches — the town's signature photo spot, with sweeping views along both bays.
A small sheltered cove tucked below the old town beside the Balcón del Mediterráneo, between the two big beaches — calm, scenic and handy for a quick central swim.
Benidorm's iconic main beach — a 2 km arc of golden sand beneath the high-rise skyline, with a lively palm-lined promenade, watersports and a wall of beach bars. Blue Flag, and busy year-round.
The longer, calmer beach west of the old town — a 3 km sweep with a striking wave-form promenade by architect Carlos Ferrater, favoured by families and residents over the busier Levante.
A protected clifftop natural park on the headland east of Levante — walking trails to the Cruz de Benidorm viewpoint and on toward the Albir lighthouse, with dramatic drops to the sea.
A hill at the western end of Poniente with a Roman archaeological site and one of the best free viewpoints over both of Benidorm's bays.
