DENIA



Dénia is located on the east coast of Spain, along the coastal stretch known as the Costa Blanca. Denia is very much a family resort and one of the most popular tourist destinations on the northern Costa Blanca. A quiet little town that was once the centre of the region's raisin growing industry. Although tourism has taken over, raisins are still grown here and remain to be a local delicacy. The main avenue in Dénia is the Marques de Campo where you can sit and watch the world go by. In the Plaza de Constitucion you will find a wonderful 17th century church. The area around Dénia has been voted the third healthiest place to live by the World Health Organisation.
What to see in Dénia
Dénia is an old town with a long history. Right back to Roman times it was an important centre. As such there's no wonder that there are remains of ancient civilizations everywhere.

Denia Castle
One of the most important monuments in Dénia is the castle. You can read all about Denia Castle and see a video here. The castle also houses a museum. It was built in the 11th century and has been remodelled several times over the years.

You can find the castle at the top end of Denia, close to the town hall. Access is via a maze of narrow streets.

The main seafront in Dénia is an attractive road with ample parking and facilities to stop and eat and drink. From the seafront, small roads lead into the town.
