Like we have been witnessing the good weather is here and if you are like me you can´t wait to get out there and enjoy yourself. And one of those summer activities that I love to watch, and do sometimes, although it takes a lot of practice and patience the results are a lot of fun.

The Campello Surf Club offers you surf, bodyboard and longboard classes this summer. All the classes are at a beginner level so don´t worry, the objective here in part of the teachers is to teach the students the sport of surf, not only in practice but in theory as well.

do you dare? The classes begin in July but you should sign up ahead of time to saved your spot.

Can you smell the burnt rubber, feel the roaring of the motors, the power of hundredths of horse power ready to go. That´s right formula 1 is coming to the valencian community. Bernie Ecclestone has made the announcement and in the coming years we will be able to enjoy a Gran Prix Formula 1 event right here in the Valencian Community.

Benidorm is a step away from Valencia and has the best themed hotels of the community, so it is the perfect excuse to get away and enjoy your vacation in the Costa Blanca with so much excitement going on.

and when will all this take place? Next year, yes 2008 will be an exiting year.

Why not? the weather invites you to run outside and play. If you watch the news you will be able to see that here in Benidorm we are ready for the beach while some of our neighboring cities are still putting on sweaters and getting a cold breeze.

What are you waiting for, pull out the swimsuits and take some time of this weekend in Benidorm and enjoy the warm weather, crisp sea, and all the fun in the sun you could have. It is a privilege to live in this part of the world where summer days are just a step away.

The Maserof is the typical old mountain cabin from the XVIII century located on the way to the Sierra de Bernia just 5 kilometers from Jalon, and only 25 Km from Denia and 32 Km from Benidorm. A perfect place to get away from today and get to yesterday.

Here you can observe a farm that is more than 300 years old with a lot of history and a wine club that allows members to buy several vines of which they receive about 20 bottles of from their own vines each year or they are held for the next years.

With a museum in which you can learn everything you want about this little place, this is a magical place that no one who visits the Costa Blanca should miss.
