JAVEA INFO:
At the foot of Mount Montgo lies Javea. Watchtowers were built on the mountain tops by the Berbers for their views of the whole coastline and there is still a medieval atmosphere in the Town. With its 16th century church, covered market and fascinating narrow street, is sheltered from northerly winds by Mount Montgo, and the old fishing port about a mile away is protected by the lower slopes terminating in Cabo San Antonio, thus giving a pleasant climate.
For the historian Javea offers a feast of old treasures and sites to visit.The Javea area of the Costa Blanca is best known for its unspoiled beauty and excellent 'Blue Flag' Beaches. Javea itself has three main areas. The 'Arenal' offers beautiful Sandy Beaches, a promenade of Shops, Bars and Restaurants with a small fair for children in the Summer Months with rides trampolining and Go Karts. The 'Port' is a traditional Fishing Port with a large Marina, intimate Cobbled Streets, a brightly lit Promenade of Restaurants and Bars.

There are about 320 ! days of sunshine throughout the year. At the beginning of February the almond flowers announce a long period of spring and the area is ablaze with blossom of all shades from white to deep pink - when Britain is usually having its worst weather of the year.
