This trip was fully organised not by me, including transport, climbing gear, places to visit. I really enjoyed the climat of Spain, hot weather with no rain during whole trip. Climbing in natural environment was great there, swimming in Costa Blanca too. I liked the flora of this region, I saw fruiting opuntias, khaki trees, orange and lemon trees, olive trees and date palms. There was a lot of rosemary shrubs growing on the rocks. The transition from day to night was very short. It was chilly in the morning and everything outside was a bit wet from morning dew.

Rocky hills all around. White houses with swimming pools. Almost no people outside, looked like abandoned. View from Puerta del Valle.

When I walked down the street from climbing spot to the beach, it seemed very empty too.
