Benidorm has a reputation that precedes it but, having spent three nights in the city exploring the alternative side, I’m pleased to say that it’s a destination that offers so much. This collection of photos aims to show all sides of Benidorm!
In May 2025, I visited Benidorm in Spain working with Jet2Holidays and the Visit Benidorm tourist board. I think it’s fair to say that Benidorm’s reputation precedes it but what I found was a delightfully charming Old Town, unique architecture, rugged coastlines, crystal clear waters and a food scene as good as anywhere.
Of course, being Benidorm, there is another side to all of that; the New Town area is almost exactly as you can imagine though it can be fun in small doses. I spent a few free mornings and afternoons wandering the streets of Benidorm with my camera and this post is the result; a collection of most of my images taken spending just three nights in the city.
My ‘On The Streets’ series takes us across the world with short posts focusing solely on my unique style of travel and street photography. The series will never be complete but here’s a look at where I’ve covered so far:
Ok, now it’s time for a virtual wander around the streets of Benidorm. This is my take on street photography in Benidorm.
STREET PHOTOGRAPHY IN BENIDORM
THE DETAILS
I took four lenses with me on my trip to Benidorm; the Fujifilm 18mm f/1.4, Fujifilm 35mm f/1.4, Fujifilm 18-55mm f/2.8-4 and the Fujifilm 50-140mm f/2.8. All of these were combined with the Fujifilm X-T5 as always.
In terms of the colours, these are all JPEGs using my Classic Negative recipe.
