RESTAURANTS ON THE ARENAL, JÁVEA
Pirates and smugglers once took advantage of the hiding places afforded by the cliffs, caves, inlets and two rocky islands that make up Jávea’s attractive coastline.
The coast of Jávea stretches to a length of 25 kilometres with breathtaking vertical cliffs and tranquil waters that allow you to enjoy the Mediterranean Sea. The strict development policy of the local council has ensured that Jávea’s beaches have been kept mercifully free of the high-rise apartment blocks and hotels that dominate many other Spanish resorts.
