The Javea Peninsula (known as Marina Alta in Spain) stretches from Gandia in the north to Alicante in the south. Its major towns and resorts are well serviced by the A7 motorway and N332 coast road. Whilst Benidorm to the south perhaps conjures up one view of Spain, the smaller and quieter resorts, towns, and villages of the Javea peninsula have retained their charm and character and made this area a magnet for the more discerning visitor to Spain. The sothern Costa Blanca has long been popular, but now the North of the area has become a hub of residential tourism, with Alicante airport witnessing increasing passenger numbers from the UK. For many years by passed by mass tourism the coastal and inland areas north of Benidorm which have been little-known to the average British holidaymaker are starting to figure on the residential tourist's map. The beautiful, unspoilt coastline between Denia and Gandia is renowned for its 22 kilometres of long sandy beaches whilst the coast from Denia to Altea is punctuated with small rocky coves and sandy bays. Away from the coast there is a proliferation of villages offering a peaceful sedate style of living set against a background of beautiful mountains and valleys filled with citrus and olive groves. The area is typified by good wine, good food, and good life. Sit back relax and let the world pass by. The Costa Blanca is the perfect location for that “new beginning” and there is no wonder more and more visitors simply fall in love with the variety, tranquillity, culture and lifestyle of this delightful, healthy coastline. Here life is that little bit slower, its people are generous to a fault, and you will see a friendliness not found in some of the other Costa locations. The medics will tell you that the healthier diet, cleaner air and higher warmer temperatures give you a quality of life we all need after a lifetime of work and labours.
