Valentine's Day in the Marina Alta: romantic getaways and plans
February is the month of love, but any time is a good time for a getaway with your partner. The Marina Alta region, with its combination of sea, nature, charming villages, and Mediterranean cuisine, is one of those destinations that invites you to slow down, reconnect, and enjoy life's little pleasures together.
Far from mass tourism and the noise of peak season, traveling as a couple in winter or spring offers a much more intimate, authentic, and special experience. Fewer people, more peace and quiet, better prices, and a sense of exclusivity that's hard to find at other times of the year.
