About Javea :
Javea is a town of great beauty and has much to offer visitors. The coast of Javea, 25 kilometres long, with beaches that stand out because of their natural beauty, their transparent waters and the Mediterranean forest which surrounds them. Set against a backdrop of the Montgó Mountain, Javea is a two-centre resort with two main beaches. The most popular is the sandy Arenal beach with a promenade stretching the length of the bay with bars, restaurants and shops which offer a relaxed atmosphere by day. By night it comes alive and is a great place for a stroll along the seafront to view the many market stalls set up along the prom. Every year Javea’s beaches are awarded the blue flag of the European Union and have the most gentle slope into the sea and are very safe for families. Its many services include water sports, play areas for children, sun beds for hire, natural and artificial shade. A fun train runs between the two resort centres through the high season.
...and the second resort centre :
About one kilometre away is the second resort centre. The pretty old town of Javea is situated behind the port and has narrow tree-lined streets where you will find local shops and quaint little cafes. This part of town is very much a Spanish community and hosts a choice of stylish restaurants and bars with lovely views of the port. The old town is also where you will find the market, post office and main church. Here the beach is pebbly and is backed by a palm tree promenade leading to the port. A stroll through the port can be a true delight taken at the time of the fish market which coincides with the late afternoon arrival of the fishing boats and accompanying seagulls.
