This is a list and description of the best beaches<\/strong> in and around Alicante<\/strong>. \u00a0Alicante’s economy depends on the tourism industry, and as a result most of the beaches here are clean and have services either on the beach itself or very near. However it is still possible to find odd beaches hidden away from the crowds. There are also a couple of nudist beaches.\u00a0<\/p>\n
