Benidorm has changed a lot since the the days when it was an exclusively British 18/30s club land. Sure it still has a great club scene and plenty of young people come to fill the clubs, and it continues to attract many Brits, but over the years it has become far more international. It is also becoming a more stylish town, catering to a wider variety of people. You'll still find lots of fish 'n' chips, if that's what you've come to Spain to eat, but you'll also find a lot of fine dining.

The gay scene is well established, with many bars appealing to different tastes. Add to that its beautiful beaches, over 2,000 shops and lots of major attractions to keep you occupied, it all adds up to a first rate gay holiday destination.
Interestingly, after New York, it's often claimed that Benidorm has the most sky scrapers in the world! Over 330 buildings taller than 35 meters, yet surprisingly, its not the urban sprawl you may expect. Everything is very spaced out with wide streets and lots of room to breathe.
