Car hire in Altea - the white town of the Costa Blanca

Altea is the Costa Blanca at its most photogenic - a hilltop old town of whitewashed houses crowned by the blue-domed church, above a pebble seafront and marina. Sitting between Benidorm and Calpe, it is an artistic, calmer base, and a car opens up the whole northern coast and the mountains behind it.
