Why live on the Costa Azahar, The Orange Blossom Coast.?

The combination of idyllic surroundings, gentle climate and excellent facilities, together with an efficient network of communications, main motorway from Barcelona to Valencia, main train service from Barcelona to Valencia, and main airports only one hour away, plus the building of a new local airport makes this region an ideal choice for to live in. The Costa Azahar is not so cool as the Northern Costas in Winter, and cooler than the Southern ones in the hot summers.

The ancient town of Gandia lies at the southern end of the poetically named Costa del Azahar, the Orange Blossom Coast, stretching northwards into the provinces of Valencia and Castellón, to Vinarós on the Catalan border. The region enjoys a privileged position, between the warm Mediterranean Sea and the mountain ranges of the sierras, which protects it from the winds of the Meseta.

The mild, constant climate accounts for the fertility of its hinterland, la huerta, a seemingly endless plantation of orange groves, which provides the periodical eruptions of scented blossoms giving their name to the coast.

Miles of fine sandy beaches, offering extensive facilities for sports and leisure, attract growing numbers of visitors to the coastal resorts of Oliva, Gandia, El Saler and Cullera in the south and Benicassim, Oropesa, Peñíscola and Vinarós in the North.

The gentle coastal breezes and stronger Garbi wind favour windsurfing and sailing, sports well catered for by the schools, marinas and yacht clubs dotted all along the coastline.

Golfers are also well served by the many excellent courses found in the proximity of most resorts, the most notable being La Sella, Oliva Nova, El Saler and the Mediterraneo Club in Borriol.

The region is well endowed with art treasures from a rich history stretching back over 2000 years and towns like Valencia, Castellón and Peñíscola are monuments in themselves, permanent reminders of the brilliance of Spain's history.

In an area blessed with so many attractions, developments are still relatively sparse and the landscape is unusually free of the larger urbanizations dominating the better-known Costas further south. Only occasionally, clusters of apartments and villas appear, half hidden amidst the orange and almond groves or on the slopes of distant hills

Peniscola

The town of Peñíscola, situated in the north of the Community of Valencia, is set in a privileged part of the Spanish Mediterranean. The municipality of Peñíscola covers 79Km 2 , 17 of which run parallel to the coastline, an area which is fairly distributed between woodland areas and warm Mediterranean groves of oranges, olives and almonds.

The old city, which is crowned by a XIV century castle-stronghold and was the residence of Pope Benedicto XIII, stands on top of an impressive rocky crag which rises 64 metres above the blue sea. A sandy isthmus joins it to the mainland, which in the past was swept by waves in the midst of storms, turning the city into an ephemeral island.

Providing a contrast with the old quarters are the modern streets and wide avenues of the tourist area. Warm waters in summer and autumn are shared between the extensive beaches of fine sand which lie to the north of the fortress, and the beautiful coves flanked by steep cliffs which can be found to the south
