Cape San Antonio, Jávea, and Riurau
Located in northern Alicante, the Marina Alta region is known for its stunning landscapes, with Jávea standing out as one of its most beautiful towns. Nestled between the Montgó mountain and the Mediterranean Sea, Jávea preserves its medieval streets with narrow alleys, white facades, and Gothic windows, creating a timeless atmosphere. One of the region's key landmarks is the Cabo de San Antonio, a prominent cape between Jávea and Denia, rising over 150 meters above the sea and offering spectacular views. This area is also home to the Cabo de San Antonio Marine Reserve and important micro-reserves of flora. Before tourism became central to the economy, traditional activities like agriculture, fishing, and maritime trade were the main livelihoods. One particularly notable feature of the region is the "riuraus," structures historically built for drying grapes to produce raisins, a significant export from the nearby Denia port. These elements reflect the region's rich history and natural beauty, making it a unique destination for visitors.
