Following the success of our sold-out Málaga: Light, Colour & Culture trip, Alicante is the next stop in this growing series of immersive European photography workshops.
Join me for a 4-night adventure in Alicante, Spain, where we’ll explore the interplay of light, colour, and culture in a city that combines historic charm with Mediterranean energy. From the dramatic Castillo de Santa Bárbara overlooking the old town to the palm-lined Explanada and vibrant neighbourhoods of Santa Cruz, Alicante is a city built for photographers.
Over 4 nights, we’ll capture golden-hour architecture, lively markets, street life, and seascapes. There will also be the option of a day trip to nearby Altea or Villajoyosa if the group decides — Altea with its whitewashed old town and iconic blue-domed church, or Villajoyosa with its boldly painted seafront homes.
With a small group of just 6 photographers, you’ll receive personalised guidance and plenty of time to refine your style across a mix of urban, cultural, and coastal settings.
