Denia

The cosmopolitan and vibrant Port Town of Dénia is situated at the northern tip of the Alicante province, on the Costa Blanca, that throughout the centuries has always been rich in both history and culture. Evidence of the differing cultures that have pasted through the town has included the Carthaginians, Romans, Arabs, Iberians and the Christians, all of whom have left their own legacies to shape Denia into the town that it is today.
 
Denia’s beaches offer remarkable beauty and diversity that includes to the north, 15km of lush "Blue Flag” Sandy beaches and pebble beaches of the Les Marines and to the south is the more rugged and rocky coastline of Les Rotes with its spectacular coves and crystal clear waters that are a pure paradise for both diving and snorkeling.
 
 
In the historical old centre, where its Castle and Monastery raise majestically up towards the blue Mediterranean sky, you will find the narrow streets around the Loreto with its many restaurants, hotel, hostel, craft workshops, galleries, churches and lively Tapas Bars where in the spring and summer month’s offers medieval markets and street music.
 
At the top of the "Marques de Campo” is The Summer House "La Glorieta” with pretty fountain, café and lots of needed shade beneath the beautiful Bunganvilla and Vines. As you walk down the tree lined Marques de Campo you will find the busy shops, cafes, restaurants, cerveceria’s, ice-cream parlors and lots more until you finally reach the Port area where you can watch the fishermen bringing in their catch of the day, which you can buy yourself from the port fish market, or maybe just board a ferry heading to the Balearic Islands of Ibiza, Menorca, Mallorca and Formentera.
