We all know Benidorm is famed for its nightlife and is a mecca for stag and hen parties as well as a popular tourist resort for families with children – but what else is there to do apart from spending days at the beach and visiting the theme parks of Aqualandia, Mundomar, Terra Mitica and Terra Natura?

Well, how about taking advantage of the coastal location to go on some boat trips and excursions at very reasonable prices.

Isla de Benidorm (Peacock Island)

If you have seen the episode on series 5 of the popular comedy TV show, Benidorm, then you will have seen Liam taking the synchronized swimming team on a ‘booze cruise’.

Sadly this is fictional and was purely made up for the television show!

However the good news is that there are plenty of good value boat trips you can take that leave from Benidorm and allow you to see the coastline in a completely unique way.

If you do want to see the full episode of Benidorm series 5, episode 5, which features the booze cruise then we have the video below for your enjoyment!
