<span style='color:#780948'>ARCHIVED</span> - These are the 20 Alicante TRAM beach stops with free travel at weekends

What should be a relaxing and carefree day at the beach can quickly become a nightmare, packing up the car and slowly making your way through congested summer traffic before spending forever trying to find a parking space.

But discovering Alicante province's stunning beaches doesn't have to be so frustrating.

The Valencian goverment, through Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat Valenciana (FGV), is promoting direct Alicante TRAM travel to a number of beaches across the province this summer.

And for the remainder of July, users can jump aboard for free on Sundays. The move is part of the government's 'Pla Reactiva' initiative which aims to promote the use of public transport.

"We want to encourage the use of public transport, contribute to the decongestion of towns and cities and reduce pollution to advance in the fight against climate change," explained the Valencian President, Ximo Puig.

Line 5 has the same stops as Line 4, with the addition of La Marina and Porta del Mar.
