Javea, is situated 60 Km North of Benidorm on Cost Blanca. It is a popular place for tourists and for expatriate residents as well.

In the town area of Javea, near the beach many new developments are in progress (2008).

An other main attraction is the large amounts of villas situated around in the valley of Javea. Many on South facing slopes, with massive rock formations towards the North, sheltering from North winds.

This way you get maximum use of the sun during the winter.

During the winter you can find good surf conditions in the nearby area
