The lively resort of Javea, is made up of three principal areas, the Arenal beach, the Port and the Old Town.
The Arenal beach area is the most recent development and has a lovely large horseshoe shaped sandy beach overlooked by a promenade full of shops, bars, nightclubs, and a good variety of restaurants. The sea here is shallow and gently sloped and is ideal for children. You can hire motor boats from the marina entrance and explore the many nearby coves and beaches. Behind the beach front area are many shops, bars and restaurants to enjoy.
Travel along the coast road from the Arenal beach and you come to Javea Port. Here you’ll find a good variety of established shops, services, bars, restaurants and supermarkets
Explore the old town with it’s narrow winding streets and squares spread across the hill. Again, here you’ll find various, more typically Spanish shops, bars, restaurants and supermarkets. The weekly market is held on a Wednesday in the Old Town and is very popular
