ACACIAS Spanish School
The City of Alicante...
Alicante, pearl of the Mediterranean, enjoys a wonderful climate year round with splendid beaches that earn the Blue Flag Awards from the EU every year.
The Postiguet beach is, believe or not, in the very town centre.
The area, inhabited well before the Romans, is of vital importance in the modern economy of Spain, and famous leisure destinations are not far. Therefore Alicante International Airport has excellent links with many European cities.
With 500.000 inhabitants, Alicante offers the advantages of a medium-sized city with a cultural life, a young and dynamic university, and a booming economy with century- old traditions like the San Juan Festivities or the "Moors and Christians" celebrations, a revival of the "Reconquista" battles.
The vast majority of people speaks Spanish with no special accent unlike Barcelona where Catalan becomes dominant
