Costa Blanca > Oliva
Oliva town is situated just 20km north of Denia, 75 Kms from Valencia Airport and 100 Km from Alicante Airport. Being surrounded by orchards and olive groves, Oliva offers its visitors a true taste of old Spain.
Its cobbled streets lead to the blue domed churches of san Roque and the remains of an old Moorish castle. There is also a more modern area of the town with tree lined boulevards, plenty of shops and a lively market. Oliva boasts miles and miles of some of the most beautiful unspoilt beaches. The fine sand beach is surrounded, almost 10 km in length, by a natural dune which is the only separation between the orange tree fields and the sea with the back drop of the surrounding hills and mountains.
The mild weather in this area allows you to enjoy the sea almost all year round. Windsurf lovers will find the perfect place to excercise their skills: windsurfing schools and beaches are dotted about in areas reserved specifically for them where the public are not allowed to swim.
The Nautic Club offers moorage to ships and boats as well as a variety of sailing courses. Enjoy a tranquil walk under twilight by the masts of the boots and the colourful architecture of the sailing district or relaxe on your summer terrace or the animated chiringuitos by the sea. The Mediterranean sea and the rivers make of Oliva a privileged place for fishers too.
