However these parts are centralized in some parts of the city centre. If you are not keen on meeting British people only, you can choose to stay in a hotel just outside of the city centre where the real Spanish culture isn't erased by the mass. Here it is easy to avoid the 'Guiri-culture' and have a tast of the real Spanish life. This still exist as Benidorm is still a Spanish city! If you want to be 100% sure not to encounter with shorts and slippers with white socks then book a visit in the early spring or late fall. The wheather is still much nicer then the British wheather! Where exactly did you go Suze?? Benidorm has indeed parts which are flooded by British tourists. However these parts are centralized in some parts of the city centre.

I am not sure what it is like during the hight of summer, but we found a huge very clean beautifull beach and a quaint kinda fadyness to the place. Old couples enjoying an afternoon dance and a good place to enjoy the sunset. Just 10 km inland and you'll find a great area for hikes and climbing !!!
