Javea is located about an hour’s drive from either Alicante or Valencia airports. Javea is divided into three main areas: ‘The Old Town’ which oozes ancient flavour is both rustic and monumental; ‘The Port’, born out of a fishing community and; ‘The Arenal’ offering sun, sand & sea and lively beach life with its bars and restaurants open late every night and stalls selling artisan products & jewellery. Outside of these areas there are rugged coasts to explore with breathtaking views. The enlightened council has put building restrictions in place so no high rise hell here!
Nearby tourist attractions – only 30 minutes' drive away is Benidorm with its water park ‘Aqualandia’ and the fantastic theme park ‘Terra Mitica’ - both directly accessible from the AP-7 motorway. The village of Gata, 5 minutes away, is known for its basket ware and artisan goods and is well worth visiting. A trip up into the mountains with stops at Guadalest and Les Fonts d’Algar is a must.
