Digital Nomads

WITH the introduction of Spain’s digital nomad visa many remote workers are now flocking to the Valencian city of Ali‐cante. Many choose this vibrant city over the likes of Madrid and Barcelona as it has an urban lifestyle, but at a slow‐er pace compared to the other large Spanish cities. The Mediterranean cli ‐mate encourages outdoor living and the streets of Alicante are alive with resi ‐dents enjoying some tapas and a glass of wine in the evening after work.

Alicante Airport located in El ‐ Altet is the fifth busiest airport in Spain, accord‐ing to the statistics based on the figures in 2022, and is a huge draw for this coastal city. It is also possible to get around Spain by train from Alicante with many high ‐ speed train companies oper‐ating from the train station there.

Of course, the affordability of the city compared to others is a big attraction as is the fact that there are 28 international schools in the city. Alicante is now usual‐ly featured in many articles listing the best cities to be a digital nomad.
