10 Nature & Parks in Javea That You Shouldn't Miss
The coastal jewel of Javea is bookended by rocky headlands and is a prime example of old world meets modern energy. The "old town" district is filled with remains of walls built to keep out pirates, as well as a 14th-century church. Visit the beautiful white-sand Arenal beach, brimming with shops, restaurants and, in the summer, hopping beachside bars and nightclubs.

A sandy beach in great location with plenty of restaurants and bars along the promenade for snacks, lunch, dinner etc. Lots of parking nearby for rental cars including our preferred underground car park (keeping the car out of the sun) which was only €3 for the day. Sun loungers on the beach were €7 each plus €7 for an umbrella in August 2019. There were pedalos and kayaks available to rent, but we didn't try these.

My favourite place along the Javea coastline. It doesn't take long to walk until the very end of the promontory, though the path is a little rocky, but it is SO worth it for the amazing views. Make sure you go early in the morning, though, or out of season, otherwise the sun can get very hot. Cala Sardinera is also worth a visit, if you don't mind steep rocky paths and if you love rocky beaches with crystal-clear waters and lots of fish (for snorkelling purposes, not fishing) and posidonia sea grass. Nature at its very best.

The name is "La Barraca" for the local people. Rural cove with gravel, boulders and pebbles between Cap Prim and Cap Negre. It can be accessed by car from the “Cabo de la Nao” road and on foot from the scenic viewpoint: “Mirador de la Cruz del Portitxol”. In front of this cove, there is the Portitxol Island (300 m) with major botanical and archaeological interest. It is highly recommended for scuba diving.

We hiked national park de la Granadella and to our biggest surprise after climbing rocks around a mountain rug we viewed playa the la Granadella where we kayaked last summer. This is simply a stunning and beautiful beach. In Februari without all tourists and beach guests it’s how mothe nature created beaches. Turquoise blue clear waters, sounds of birds, beautiful green and rocky cliffs. Sit there and listen to the sounds of the waves. If you can’t soak up nature and relax here.. you will probably not find a better place. Hopefully this beach will be protected from mass tourism the way it is situated.

We love this place. There is a wonderful little kiosk with a bar which serves lovely french fries and ice cold beers. Great way to relax for an hour while the kids explore the park and play in the playground.
