Altea sits on the north Costa Blanca between Calpe and Benidorm, on a hillside above the bay with one of the most distinctive skylines on the Spanish coast. The old town pueblo, crowned by a blue tiled church dome and whitewashed houses, is perched on the hill above the marina and beach area. The contrast with neighbouring Benidorm could not be sharper: Altea has refused tower development and kept a village character that draws artists, permanent residents and a small but loyal British expat community.

The old town pueblo of Altea sits on the upper hill above the bay. Its cobbled lanes and stepped streets are not accessible to removal vehicles. Properties in the old pueblo require a carry plan from the nearest accessible road at the edge of the historic village, which may be a significant distance from upper level properties. Give the mover the exact address and the nearest road where a vehicle can stop.
The marina and lower Altea areas near the AP-7 motorway have wider roads and better vehicle access. The hillside urbanisations above and around the old town, including Cap Blanc and Les Fonts, have private roads with gates and varied lorry access. Some plots have steep approaches.
