El Castillo in Moraira

The villa is located in Moraira. This former small fishing port is now a wonderful little city with fantastic tourism and plenty of cosy squares, terraces, bars and, of course, delicious restaurants, many of which specialise in fish. If you want to experience an authentic Spanish environment, Moraira can offer you plenty of opportunities to explore both the past and the present. Try visiting the old castle or the watchtower that was used to protect the town against pirates. Or why not check out the impressive yacht basin? This basin is protected by the rocks of cap Blanc and Punta de Moraira. Or, to get a real taste Spain, pick up your own fish for the day at the morning fish junction and take home to the barbeque!
