La Explanada and its scrumptious artisanal ice-creams

This popular seafront promenade is the ideal place just to walk around and take in the liveliness of this Mediterranean coastal town.  The beautiful Roman-style mosaics make the walkway look longer than it is.

But there’s something a lot better: having a scrumptious artisanal ice cream while you watch people passing by.

Do you know that Alicante produces some of the most delicious ice-creams in Europe? In fact, some people say that they’re even tastier than those churned out in Italy. And I agree!
