Walk around the old quarter and discover an authentic Moorish-Spanish atmosphere in its narrow cobbled streets.

The beaches to the North of Dénia are in total contrast to the beaches in the South. "Las Marinas" in the North is a 14.5 km long stretch of fine, sandy beaches offering differing facilities that provide everything needed for a relaxing holiday soaking up the sun. There is a large selection of bars and restaurants catering for all tastes and budgets along the length of this stretch of coast. The South stretch of coast consists mainly of residential areas including some very large villas. This coastline is a paradise for scuba diving. The Montgó Natural Reserve forms a dramatic backdrop to the South coast of Dénia.
