There's no denying that Benidorm is an incredibly popular holiday resort

, in recent years the success of the ITV sitcom 'Benidorm' has increased the amount of people wanting to visit the sun drenched resort they see on screen. Sun, sea and sand are the main attractions of this Mediterranean resort however many people haven't considered another positive aspect of a Benidorm holiday; it is surprisingly environmentally friendly.

With a range of high rise hotels and coach-loads of holidaymakers to fill them, Benidorm is not the obvious contender for 'eco holiday of the year' but experts are now praising the resort for its eco friendly standards.

When you think about eco friendly holidays it is no surprise that images of remote landscapes and primitive living conditions come to mind. However instead of feeding on grubs in the Kalahari, why not relax on the beach or enjoy a cocktail by the pool? An increasing factor in many people's holiday decision is the environmental impact of their trip. With information about CO2 emissions being hammered into our conscience, it is no wonder that the eco rating of a destination is becoming as important as the amount of bars within walking distance of the beach.

Benidorm has set a standard for eco friendly holidays that many other destinations will hopefully follow. Without losing any of the 'bucket and spade' charm that Benidorm is famed for, small changes have appeared throughout the resort to work towards conserving energy and cleaning up the area. Those enjoying a Benidorm holiday should look out for the small adjustments that many hotels have made, including one that has programmed lights to automatically turn off when leaving the room.

Around the resort visitors should take note of the low energy street lighting and foot pump operated water taps. Restaurants prefer to serve locally sourced food and everything is within walking distance, eradicating the need for cars. Those wanting a family friendly beach holiday to Benidorm will appreciate the immaculate beach and clean water, perfect for those with young children.

Even the location of Benidorm is adding to the eco friendly environment, the small holiday resort is literally packed with tourist, limiting the size of the place that tourists are impacting. So for those wanting to enjoy the rewards of a relaxing, getaway with a clear conscience, it seems that Benidorm is an ideal destination. Although the energy conserving steps may be quite small compared to other less convenient destinations, the amount of tourists visiting the area can all play a part in promoting the eco friendly nature.
