Algorfa is a small inland town on the southern Costa Blanca in Spain close to Benej\u00fazar, Almorad\u00ed, Heredades and Formentera del Segura.<\/p>\n

The city of Algorfa is well connected by road, as it is very close to the Alicante-Cartagena toll highway and the CV-91 expressway that goes from Orihuela to Guardamar. If you want Algorfa to be your next holiday destination, it can be reached by plane, either Alicante or Murcia airport. Both airports are a 30-minute drive from the resort.<\/p>\n

In its beginnings Algorfa was a large farm dedicated to agriculture and the cultivation of citrus, olive groves, vineyards and fig trees. As a curious fact we will say that the town center is divided into two parts; one belongs of course to the municipality of Algorfa and the other to the municipality of Almorad\u00ed.<\/p>\n

Algorfa: Climate<\/h2>\n

Algorfa has a Mediterranean climate, which means that there are more than three hundred sunny days and very little rain in winter. In fact, the average annual temperature is 20 degrees.<\/p>\n

Algorfa is a relatively small community with just over 2,000 permanent residents, with all apartments being newly built.<\/p>\n

Algorfa: infrastructure and services<\/h2>\n

In the town of Algorfa itself, there are several traditional Spanish tapas bars, various shops, including a pharmacy and optician.<\/p>\n

The closest beach is Guardamar<\/a>. These are the fine sandy blue flag beaches, bars and restaurants located just a five minute drive away.<\/p>\n

The nearest big city with its attractions, water parks, shops, marina, museums, bars, restaurants and the promenade is Torrevieja<\/a>.<\/p>\n

There are numerous local markets on different days of the week and many surround cities, towns and resorts.<\/p>\n

La Finca Golf in Algorfa<\/h2>\n

Some people think that Algorfa is a golfer’s paradise with the superb 5-star La Finca de Golf on its doorstep, but there are many other high-quality Costa Blanca golf courses within easy reach, including Villamartin, Las Ramblas and Campoamor. La Finca is an 18-hole course designed by Pepe Gancedo, with a par of 72.<\/p>\n

What to see in Algorfa<\/h2>\n

In addition, we suggest you visit the main places, according to the following information of interest:<\/p>\n

Iglesia Parroquial de la Virgen del Carmen<\/h3>\n

It is located, as is characteristic of all the towns of the Vega Baja del Segura, near the Town Hall and in front of the Plaza de Espa\u00f1a. Functional style construction, construction began in 1963 in honor of Nuestra Sra. del Carmen, finishing the building in 1967.<\/p>\n

La Ermita<\/h3>\n

It is very close to the traditional urban nucleus, on top of a small hill. Built at the beginning of the 20th century, using neo-Gothic style stones from the Escotera quarry. A pilgrimage takes place in honor of the Virgen del Carmen at the beginning of July. The hermitage is undoubtedly one of the most representative examples of the municipality of Algorfa.<\/p>\n

Montemar Castle (Castillo de Montemar)<\/h3>\n

Built at the end of the 18th century and for more than a century it belonged to the family of the Counts of Casa Rojas. The stately castle is located on one of the highest heads that form the hill of an agricultural estate. It is listed as an Asset of Cultural Interest.<\/p>\n

Algorfa Necropolis (Necr\u00f3polis de Algorfa)<\/h3>\n

The Algorfa necropolis was discovered at the beginning of the s. XX with remains belonging to the Neolithic period, III millennium BC. The instruments found are made of stone and ceramic vessels, but currently only a few pieces are preserved in the Archaeological Museum of Orihuela.<\/p>\n

San Vicente Ferrer Cultural Centre (Casa de Cultura “San Vicente Ferrer”)<\/h3>\n

Modern building with several rooms such as: Computer room, exhibition room, assembly hall with a capacity for 200 people and musical rehearsal room.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
