DESCRIPTION OF THE LOCAL AREA La Florida, in the area of Orihuela Costa, is less than a 10 minutes drive south of Torrevieja. It has a very multi-cultural feel as many people from other countries now live in this area and actually outnumber the Spaniards! This area is a favourite for British and Irish ex-pats. Consequently, the shops, bars and restaurants in this area originate from many nationalities to provide food to suit all tastes - from the native Spanish to Italian, French, German, Chinese, Indian, Korean, Scandinavian, Argentinean, Hungarian, Mexican cuisine, etc. The Emerald Isle Irish entertainment centre is within a 5 minute walk with two swimming pools surrounded by large grassed sunbathing areas. You can sit and relax around the pool all day (small cost for hire of sunbeds and use of pools). There are children's play areas with the ball park and bouncy castle available for a small cost. The restaurant and bar are open all day serving hot/cold food either inside or outdoors. There is nightly outdoor entertainment in the summer. There are daily activities such as aerobics (in the pool when warm enough), Tai Chi classes, line dancing, scuba diving lessons, bingo, etc 10 minutes walk from the renowned Irish pub the Abbey Tavern (www.theabbeytavern.com), which normally stays open until 3 or 4 in the morning most of the year and has nightly entertainment, beer garden, large tv, pool, darts, internet computers and children's play area., and other facilities in the La Florida commercial area (supermarket, bars, Chinese and other restaurants, bank, car hire, hairdressers, etc).
