Javea:
Javea has something to offer everyone: beaches and coves, cultural and historical sites to visit and wonderful walks. The town is divided into three distinct sections. There is the old town, with its narrow cobbled streets and its monuments of Spanish history and culture. The town has a rich culinary tradition which has been entirely preserved and which can be sampled, in the form of 'Tapas', in most bars of the town. The port area is still a working fishing port and is a delightful place to visit with its mixture of fish markets and seafront bars and cafes. Every year, Jávea´s beaches are awarded the blue flag of the European Union. The bustling 'Arenal' beach offers fine sand and shallow waters, nice play areas for children, restaurants, cafés, shops and ample parking facilities.
Outings:
Within only 25 minutes drive there are three theme parks in Benidorm : Terra Mitica Theme Park, Aqualandia Water park with super-slides and Mundomar (animal park, dolphins, seals etc.). The new Science & Oceanographic (5000 different fish) parks at Valencia is worth a trip. The terrain of the Montgo and Jalon valleys provide the perfect environment for walking. The waterfalls at the Fonts d'Algar are a 30 minute drive from the villa. The hilltop town of Guadalest a scenic hour away. Ibiza and Majorca are both just a short ferry ride away with crossings leaving Denia harbour daily. During the summer there are many wonderful fiestas to see.
