Torrevieja has received the Family Tourism Seal, a certification recognising the city as a destination adapted to the needs of families. The Spanish Federation of Large Families awarded the distinction in recognition of the town’s leisure facilities, natural spaces, beaches and specialised services.

Mayor Eduardo Jorge Dolón collected the award on Thursday from Eduardo Hervás, president of the Large Families Federation of the Valencian Community and a member of the national federation’s board. With this accreditation, Torrevieja strengthens its position as a family-friendly Mediterranean destination.

Among its main attractions are the Natural Park of the Lagoons of La Mata and Torrevieja, including the well-known Pink Lagoon, as well as tourist train routes through the salt flats. The town also offers adapted beaches such as La Mata and El Cura, and the Floating Museums, home to the S-61 Delfín, the first submarine of its kind in Spain open to visitors.

The Family Tourism Seal was launched in 2013 to help families identify destinations, accommodation and companies that meet their needs. With Torrevieja’s inclusion, the Valencian Community expands its list of certified destinations, which already includes Valencia, Peñíscola and Alcalà de Xivert-Alcossebre, along with around 200 accredited options nationwide.
