Buying A Home In The Costa Blanca – The Best Beaches

When you are buying a property in the Costa Blanca with Hamiltons of London, you will undoubtedly wish to know how far it is to the nearest beach. Whether you are searching for a property for sale in Calpe, Moraira, Javea, or Denia or prefer to be a short drive inland in the Jalon or Orba valleys, the area has an abundance of beaches to offer.

Calpe

The southern end of the Benissa Costa leads to the town of Calpe, which enjoys white sandy beaches lapped by the sea and overlooks the impressive Rock d'Ifach, which offers protection to many birds, mammals, and reptiles. This nature reserve adds a unique beauty to the surrounding beaches. The beaches in Calpe offer a perfect opportunity to explore the local marine life, and in local restaurants, you can sample the freshest fish and seafood. Levante or Playa de la Fossa are ideal family beaches and have been awarded Blue Flag status. Beaches are lined by a long promenade with bars, restaurants, and shops. The swimming conditions offer calm, clear, and pleasant swimming conditions for the whole family. Many apartments for sale in Calpe are conveniently located close to the beaches and are available at very reasonable prices.

Benissa Costa

The Benissa Costa offers hidden coves (calas) with wonderful scenery, natural rocky surroundings, and crystal-clear water. Here you can work on your tan away from the more touristy sandy beaches, enjoy a relaxing dip in the turquoise Mediterranean Sea, and observe its rich sea life. The calas of the Benissa coast offer a perfect get-away, whether you are living here permanently and enjoying a well-earned day off from work or taking advantage of a holiday home for sale in the Costa Blanca.

Moraira

Traveling north from Calpe along the Benissa coastal road, you will reach the small town of Moraira, nestled beneath the cliff and mountain backdrop. The micro-climate means the town enjoys a stable, warm climate with 300 days of sun each year. The beaches here include the main Playa Ampola, where the soft white sand and peaceful water make it a perfect place for young swimmers. There is a small stream that runs into the sea, and children have hours of fun building sandcastles and playing in the shallow water. Here there are also other facilities, including climbing apparatus, volleyball, showers, and the restaurant El Castillo. Although busy in peak season, this beach is large enough to accommodate everyone, has an adjacent car park, and is just a short walk from the town centre. When you are buying a villa in the Costa Blanca, this beautiful area may be worth exploring.

Just a short distance south of Moraira, Plateges Beach, which is partly rocky, provides the perfect place to enjoy searching for sea life in the abundance of rock pools. Buckets, spades, and children’s fishing nets can easily be purchased locally to enjoy the pleasant family pastime of rock pooling. A bungalow for sale in Moraira on an urbanisation in this area can be great value, and you are still very close to the town. At the northern end of Moraira Bay is the popular El Portet Beach, considered one of the most picturesque. Many of the most beautifully situated properties you can buy in this area overlook this stunning bay with its sparkling sea. Traditionally, this is the beach where brave locals and ex-pats come for their New Year’s Day swim. Will you be brave enough once you own your home here in this sunny town?

Javea

Many people look for villas for sale in Javea, where there are a variety of beaches and plenty to do along the 20-kilometer stretch of coastline. The promenade along the Arenal is probably one of the most popular. Fine sand slopes softly into the sea and provides excellent access for people of all ages and abilities to be able to enjoy this blue-flag standard beach. There are plenty of activities available for the more able-bodied and energetic, and during the summer, there are often spectacular fireworks shows at night. 

Denia

Denia has 15 kilometres of coastline divided into two large stretches of beach: Las Rotas and Las Marinas. These large beaches offer plenty of areas for children to play and for snorkelers and divers to enjoy exploring the little coves at Las Rotas. In the afternoon, the sea breeze that develops offers the perfect conditions for surfers and kitesurfers. An area where dolphins and humpback whale spotting produce plenty of sightings and from which you can take boat trips from the nearby port, including travelling across the Mediterranean to visit the Balearic Islands. Finding a townhouse for sale in Denia will give you the perfect location for your new home in Spain.
