Guidebook for Alicante
Essentials
Mercadona
4 Avinguda de les NacionsThis is a huge Auchan (they call it Alcampo here in Spain, or Jumbo if you are from Portugal), where you can get anything you may need. Much lower prices than in the city, as they don't expect tourists to come here. Consider taking the tram from Mercado (one stop) or take a 10 minute walk from the apartment.
