Exploring the Best of the Mediterranean: Year-Round Getaways from Cornwall Airport Newquay

The allure of the Mediterranean has captivated travellers for generations, and now, the gateway to your dream holiday is closer than ever. Cornwall Airport Newquay has opened up a world of possibilities with year-round flights to three sunshine destinations: Alicante, Faro, and Malaga. Let's embark on a journey through these sun-soaked paradises and discover what awaits you.

☀ Alicante: Where History Meets Beach Bliss

Nestled along the stunning Costa Blanca, Alicante effortlessly blends history, culture, and beachside relaxation. As you step off the plane from Cornwall Airport Newquay, you'll be greeted by a city that seamlessly intertwines medieval castles and modern architecture.

Head to Santa Barbara Castle for panoramic views of the city and the shimmering Mediterranean. Stroll through the historic old town, with its charming cobblestone streets and vibrant markets. And don't miss the chance to savour mouth-watering Spanish cuisine at local tapas bars.

Of course, Alicante is also renowned for its gorgeous beaches. Sink your toes into the soft sands of Playa del Postiguet, where the azure waters beckon for a refreshing swim or a leisurely day in the sun.

☀ Faro: Gateway to the Algarve's Splendour

Touching down in Faro, you're stepping into the heart of Portugal's Algarve region. With year-round flights from Cornwall Airport Newquay, you can escape to this coastal gem whenever your wanderlust strikes.

Faro's charming old town, surrounded by ancient city walls, invites you to explore its quaint streets and historic architecture. The stunning Cidade Velha cathedral is a must-visit, offering a glimpse into the city's rich heritage.

The Algarve is synonymous with breath-taking beaches, and Faro is no exception. From the tranquil Praia de Faro to the dramatic cliffs of Praia da Marinha, you'll find yourself in beach paradise. And with its central location, Faro serves as an ideal launchpad for exploring the Algarve's coastal wonders.

☀ Malaga: Where Culture and Relaxation Converge

Malaga, a coastal jewel of Spain's Andalusia region, awaits with open arms. As Cornwall Airport Newquay offers year-round flights to this vibrant city, you can experience its cultural riches and serene beaches any time of the year.

Start your exploration at the Picasso Museum, honouring the city's most famous son. Wander through the historic Alcazaba fortress and soak in panoramic views of Malaga's skyline and the Mediterranean. And as the sun sets, the bustling streets come alive with the energy of tapas bars and traditional flamenco shows.

For beach enthusiasts, Malaga's Costa del Sol is a dream come true. Bask in the sun on Playa de la Malagueta or venture further to hidden coves for a more secluded escape.
