😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍Hello guys, thank you for sharing these beautiful places, my father in the 20s of the last century was born in the Castle of Santa Barbara, his father was the colonel of that military base (my gradfather), he tells me that as a child he was very afraid because everything It was very big and dark, and he stayed on the stairs being cold before going to bed!! Thank you for showing the Castle in such a professional way, greetings from Malaga!!

[@cjexplores]

Hi Juan! 👋🏼 wow that’s incredible, living in that castle must’ve been a wild experience! I’m glad you enjoyed seeing it in its modern day form.

[@Travel4u99]

Hi mate great video wanna asking how could you fly drone there please ,as I checked there is not allowed!

[@cjexplores]

Hey Gaz, sometimes you gotta risk it for the biscuit! I wouldn't fly too close though, take off from the beach and get your shots from a distance 😉

[@brianneale2006]

Alicante is one of my favourite Spanish Cities I visited the City several times and also the Costa Blanca and visited the Castle and walked along the lovely esplanade more than once. it is not a boulevard by the way. You should try Horchata it is a lovely drink and cafe con leche

[@cjexplores]

Thanks for tips and info Brian 🙏🏼❤️ always good to have a seasoned travellers advice!

[@DailyPassenger]

The vibes in this Santa Barbara video were so lively and vibrant🌇! I loved the hustle and bustle of the streets and the way you were able to capture it all. Like and support from MP.

[@cjexplores]

Thanks for the love ❤️ 🙏🏼 glad you enjoyed it!!

[@keithmcknight1223]

We will be there in Feb to visit for 10 days.

[@cjexplores]

Amazing, have a wonderful time!

Thank you for making such a nice video of my hometown ❤!

[@cjexplores]

Oh wow, how lucky you are to be brought up here 🤩

[@tracygrant2923]

Lovely views from the top of the castle. Worth the climb and one for the binoculars! Enjoy the rest of your trip guys and looking forward to the ‘Van Life Vlog’ 🤍👍🏻

[@JonCooper86]

i want to visit alicante, valencia, and benidorm in oct 2023. the trains from Madrid really aren't a bad price. the food and beach is all i need. and the hotels there aren't too expensive and seem very nice.

[@cjexplores]

You should do it Jon! It’s a great time to go, outside of the busy season 👍🏼

[@benmarshall5235]

Brilliant video. Thanks so much. If you can visit Bolulla, Tarbena and the Fonts de l'Algar. I think you'll like them.

[@cjexplores]

Yes, we did visit Fonts d’Algar in another video!! Thanks Ben

[@harshawardhankulkarni1733]

Hey Guys, Your vlogs are the first thing that we see when we plan any trip in Europe. Can you share the apartment you guys stayed in Alicante? Thank you!

[@cjexplores]

Awesome! That’s great to hear 😍 the apartment is under this listing here: www.airbnb.co.uk/rooms/995564858587332880?viralityEntryPoint=1&s=76 I’m actually not sure if this is the exact apartment, but the host has a few listings in the same building so you can check them all for pricing and availability by clicking on the hosts profile ☺️

[@stevie9899-e6j]

Subscribed. As i said in your other video we know the area very well , Alicante is a lovely city , we've been up at the castle a good few times, though we get the elevator up for 4 or 5 euros , from the tunnel entrance opposite the beach. See the Bullring in your video ......Tom Jones is playing there in a few months time. Dunno where you guys are off to now.......Benidorm is worth a visit for a walk along the Levante Beach promenade, and the old town, i'm no sure where you'd park though, but there are loads of very large caravan parks. Guadalest , up in the mountains 30 mins behind Benidorm is well worth a visit, it's beautifull, also Altea is nice, 10 mins past Benidorm. Further up you have Calpe , with it's famous landmark , the Penyal de Ifach , then onwards to Moriara, Javia then Denia (you could pop across to Ibiza) ;-) Anyway , enjoy and stay safe !

[@cjexplores]

Thanks for all the tips Stevie, we are actually in the north west of Spain now finishing off the Portuguese Camino! We are missing the luxuries of the van 🤣 but enjoying ourselves nonetheless. We did check out most of those places on your list just not as far up as Denia. But we had a lovely time and looking forward to sharing the rest of the adventures with you all! We climbed Ifach too!! Amazing views 🤩 the whole region was stunning 🙌🏼

[@stevie9899-e6j]

@@cjexplores sounds like you guys are having a blast , well done, looking forward to the next videos. 🙂

[@retiringtospain]

Great video guys, one place I need to explore more, you have a new subscriber - many thanks for sharing the info :)
