Alicante Finestrat Car Hire

Finestrat is located 45 km north of Alicante center and is a charming mountain village right behind Benidorm, with 3 rental companies available. From here it's just 7 km down to Benidorm's beaches and the amusement park Terra Mítica is 10 km away. Perfect as a base if you want to combine the tranquility of the mountains with Costa activities.

Finestrat is known for its old town center with white houses and the impressive mountain peak Puig Campana, 1,406 m high, which dominates the view. The village is inland but only 20 minutes' drive from Altea and its picturesque old town. Rent a car with good traction if you plan to drive up into the Sierra Aitana mountains – the roads are narrow and winding.

Visit Finestrat's old town center early in the morning before tourists arrive from the coast. Drive to Guadalest, 25 km to the north, for one of the Costa's most photogenic viewpoints. How far is it from Finestrat to Benidorm?

It's approximately 7 km and 10 minutes' drive down to Benidorm via CV-758. Are the roads around Finestrat suitable for all car types? Main roads work for all vehicles, but for mountain trips a car with good ground clearance is recommended.

Can I pick up a car in Finestrat and drop it off at Alicante Airport? Yes, but check with the rental company if one-way rental is possible and what fees apply.
