#BenidormTeEspera<\/strong> was the hash tag chosen by the Benidorm council to encourage social network users to share photos of the best moments that were happening in the town in the midst of the confinement phase. It was all a success. It lets us remember the good times spent in this beautiful town and anticipated what we would be able to enjoy again when the situation allows so. And that moment has come! #BenidormTeEspera and Beninter too.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Contemplating the Mediterranean, swimming in it, strolling through streets with the aroma of the sea, enjoying an ideal climate… Experiencing all this is once again a reality for us, and from 21st June, for many of you too<\/strong>. However, the country in general and Benidorm in particular, have worked hard to ensure that this return to a ‘new normal’ is done as safely as possible.<\/p>\n

The town, is thankful for everybody\u2019s effort and good work, it has managed to \u2018contain\u2019 the virus<\/strong> since the restrictions on Phase 0 began to be lifted and in the last few weeks only 1 new positive has been registered. Benidorm wants to keep to these numbers, which implies that restrictions and security measures have been imposed<\/strong> and that we should all know about them and include them in our daily life. Below, you have all the information about the situation in Benidorm<\/strong> and about these measures that we must apply and respect.<\/p>\n

From 21st June, Benidorm allows tourists to return<\/p>\n

As we have said, from 21st June the Spanish borders will be open for the countries belonging to the Schengen Area<\/a>, with the exception of Portugal. In addition, there are 6 other countries that, although not signed to the agreement, belong to the EU, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Romania, Bulgaria, Cyprus and Croatia. This does not mean that the opening of the borders of these countries will happen in the same way; each will define their own position. With respect to the rest of the countries, at the moment the Spanish Government has only announced that the border openings will be gradual from 1st July.<\/p>\n

Will tourists coming to Spain have to quarantine? The information we have at the moment is that no mandatory quarantine will have to be made<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The Benidorm beaches, \u00abthe safest in Europe\u00bb<\/h2>\n

Benidorm’s beaches are one of the most popular attractions, especially at this time of year. Well, let’s talk about the beaches! And this is one of the most significant changes that we have to get used to in this \u2018new reality\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u00abThe safest beaches in Europe\u00bb<\/strong> is another of the mottos that the council has chosen. In this case, to summarize the objective of the new plan that has been applied to them and which aims to guarantee sanitary security conditions for beach users.<\/p>\n

When at last we could enjoy the beaches of the surrounding towns, the Benidorm council announced that we would still have to wait to set foot on the Benidorm ones. Why? They have been working to prepare them and ensure that a town with such a large population that triples in the summer season can safely enjoy them<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

And as from 15th June we can enjoy the beaches following the \u2018Benidorm Beach Safety<\/a>\u2019 Plan:<\/p>\n
