CalpeColina del Sol is a hilltop urbanization overlooking Calpe with some of the best views of the coast. It is a mix of spacious villas and modern two storey bungalows with the Costa Rica development in the centre of the picture.

To get to the Colina del Sol urbanization you turn inland at the Calpe Plaza Central shopping centre roundabout and turn left after the tennis club following the Colina del Sol sign. Then just follow the road to the top of the hill. This is a newly developed part of Calpe with sunny open properties that are still close to town.  enlarge

CalpeThis photo gives an idea of the great views from Colina del Sol. The plots right at the top are steep although the villas and pools are built at road level, usually having independent lower apartments.

A right turn off the Colina del Sol road leads to the Garduix urban area of new luxury villas. Future plans in Calpe envisage an extension of this area with high quality streets with street lighting and pavements etc. enlarge

CalpeColina del Sol looking west towards the Olta mountain and the villas of Oltamar. Colina has all new roads and is one of the most recently developed areas of Calpe. The municipality of Calpe is an attractive mixture of hillside and lowland urban areas with many properties having fine sea views. Colina del Sol gives panoramic views of the whole Mediterranean coastine from the Punto de Moraira to Altea. enlarge
CalpeCucarres is situated on the sea side of the Olta mountain with narrow winding streets and fine ocean views from almost all the villas. The last available plots are being constructed here and many of the older properties have been renovated or are undergoing renovation.

To reach the urbanization leave Calpe on the N332 exit and take the immediate left turn to the railway station rather than the Alicante turn. After the level crossing the entrance to Cucarres is on the left. enlarge

CalpeThe upper half of the Olta mountain is a green zone and the villas give way to thick pine forests and paths that lead up to the summit. This is a  Cucarres villa just on the border.

The Oltamar urbanization adjoins Cucarres and offers fine views over the coast. The access road finishes at the green zone with a picnic and children's play area on the old agricultural terracing.  enlarge

CalpeCalpe railway station (Estacion). As you leave Calpe by the main N332 exit go immediately left out of the underpass and it's 500 metres up the road. The line follows a scenic route along the coastline from Alicante to Denia and stops at every village. Cucarres and Estacion proprietors  find it  useful for Alicante shopping trips although don't expect to get there at high speed. Now it is more of a touristic feature offering fine views of the Mediterranean coastline. enlarge
CalpeEstacion is a small urbanization right beside the station with some of Calpe's original property. The surrounding area down to the N332 is rustic land made up of olive, almond and vineyard terraces that is planned for development but which is unlikely to happen soon due to very divided ownership of the small plots. Rural roads connect the area with it's ocasional fincas and agricultural buildings. A commercial area is located beside the N332 with a notable installation being the Euronautica building. enlarge
CalpeOltamar villas are situated on the wooded Olta hillside with panoramic views over the Mediterranean Costa Blanca coastline.

The Oltamar urbanization continues on into Benissa and is reached by following the road passed Calpe station and the level crossing. enlarge
