Finestrat is a unique town on the Costa Blanca where Mediterranean coastal life meets the Spanish mountain landscape. The town consists of the historic village of Finestrat, several modern residential neighborhoods, and the coastal area of Cala de Finestrat. This allows you to choose between a traditional home in the village, a modern villa with a sea view, or an apartment close to the beach.
The combination of nature, accessibility, new residential developments, and everyday amenities makes living in Finestrat appealing to families, active seniors, second-home buyers, and people who want to move to Spain permanently. The official tourism organization explicitly promotes Finestrat as a destination where the beach, mountains, culture, and outdoor sports come together.

Finestrat is located in the province of Alicante, in the Marina Baixa region. The historic village is nestled on the slopes of Puig Campana, while Cala de Finestrat lies directly on the Mediterranean Sea.
As a result, the municipality has a variety of residential areas:
Approximate distances are as follows:
Thanks to the AP-7 and the N-332, nearby coastal towns and the airport are easily accessible. This makes Finestrat an attractive option for people who travel regularly between Spain, the Netherlands, or Belgium.
Finestrat has a Mediterranean climate with warm summers, mild winters, and plenty of sunny days. Due to the differences in elevation within the municipality, the climate can vary slightly from place to place. You’ll often feel a sea breeze along the coast, while the historic village and the residential neighborhoods located higher up can be a bit cooler in the evening.
That makes outdoor activities an important part of daily life. Walking, biking, playing golf, having lunch on a patio, and relaxing on the beach are all possible for much of the year.
For people preparing to move, our Moving to Spain page offers practical information on topics such as registration, housing, and taking care of important matters. The Moving Checklist also allows you to keep track, step by step, of what you need to take care of before and after the move.
Finestrat offers something that not every town on the Costa Blanca can offer: within a single municipality, you’ll find a traditional mountain village, modern residential areas, and its own coastal strip.
Key benefits include:
As a result, Finestrat is not a destination for just one type of buyer. Those seeking tranquility can choose the old village or a green residential neighborhood. Those who prefer to live close to amenities and the beach can focus on Cala de Finestrat and the lower-lying residential developments.
The old town of Finestrat is nestled against the mountainside and has retained much of its traditional charm. There, you’ll find narrow streets, whitewashed facades, small squares, and viewpoints overlooking the surrounding landscape.
Life in the village is more laid-back than on the coast. Residents meet at local shops, cafés, and during community events. For buyers who would like to become part of a Spanish community, historic Finestrat may be more appealing than a fully international residential development.
Homes in the village consist mainly of traditional village houses, renovated properties, and small-scale apartments. Some homes have rooftop terraces with views of the mountains or the sea.
Cala de Finestrat is the coastal part of the municipality. The sheltered cove has a sandy beach and is surrounded by apartments, restaurants, outdoor dining areas, and everyday amenities. The official tourist information highlights the combination of the beach and the nearby mountainous surroundings as characteristic of Finestrat.
Living in Cala de Finestrat is particularly appealing to people who:
The coastal area feels livelier in the summer than the historic village. Outside the high season, the atmosphere is more peaceful, but many amenities remain available.
