You can have a stopover between London and Alicante; possible locations are Munich, Amsterdam, and Barcelona. Taking a route with a stopover won't necessarily ensure a cheaper price, but if you live in central London it could ensure that you'll be able to fly from a more convenient airport, such as Heathrow or London City. If you opt to fly with a stopover, you can expect it to add between 2 to 7h to your trip compared to a non-stop flight; some airlines offer flights with a 1h stopover, which should offer as little disruption to your journey as possible, for example Lufthansa flights from London Heathrow have a 1h stop in Munich.

Since Britain left the EU, there are a few extra requirements, but you don't need a visa. You can still visit Spain for a short trip for the purpose of tourism (up to 3 months). You'll need a passport that was issued within the last 10 years, and has over 6 months until it expires. You may also need to prove that you have return flights, travel insurance, and enough money to prove that you won't need to work to support your trip. You also won't be able to use the EU passport queues/eGates like before; you'll need to join the other queue for the rest of the world.
