Beaches and watersports:
For families with young children, the shell-shaped bay at El Portet is perfect; this is a gently-shelving sandy beach, with shallow water, and it is protected from waves by the Cap de Moraira headland. There is a narrow esplanade overlooking El Portet beach, with cafes and bars, from where you can keep an eye on children playing, or sit in the evening and enjoy an aperitif. There is another sandy beach in Moraira itself, where there are pedaloes for hire, and you can also hire jet-skis from near here. Both these sandy beaches have the Blue Flag. Spread along the coast are various small coves and rocky bays - some, like Algas, with bars and cafes, some more secluded. This is a lovely area for snorkelling and scuba diving, and there are scuba diving centres in Moraira, as well as nearby Javea and Calpe, where you can learn to dive, or, if you are qualified, join the divers on their trips. You can also hire windsurfers and catamarans from Les Basetes.
Golf:
There are several golf courses within easy reach. The nearest is the 9-hole San Jaime course, on the border of Moraira and Benissa, approximately 5km away. The Javea golf club, also a 9-hole course, is approximately 7km. Slightly further, about 15km, is the 18-hole Denia golf course.
Theme Parks:
Terra Mitica, with its white knuckle rides, is about a 40 minute drive. Also 40 minutes by car is the water park of Aqualandia, and the sea-life centre of Mundomar.
