The Costa Valencian stretches from Sagunto in North to
Oliva in South. The coast North is called
Costa de Azahar and the coast
area to the south is called Costa Blanca. The largest city is called
Valencia.
The coastline is low with many sandy
beaches. Only at Cullera you have mountains arriving all the way to the
coast. Else the mountains are parallel to the coast in a distance, but
clearly visible all along. Once you enter the region with mountains
there are only few roads. The main centre for activity is the coast
line.
The coastal towns and beaches have
only caught little interest among foreign tourism. There are however
very fine beaches, especially south from Valencia. Here the beach of
Oliva is the best known. A place with many camping sites, but also smart
new developments and golf courses as Oliva Nova |
