Just 15 minutes stroll brings you to the restaurant “Aventura” where Moma has an excellent menu of home cooked food and delicious square pizzas.All the food in the area is very reasonably priced & a Menu del Dia can cost from 7.50€ to 12€. Viva Espana restaurant on the Gandia to Oliva road has an excellent flamenco floor show at the weekends and an excellent paella.In the evening there are some lovely walks through the shady orange groves or you can meander along the old narrow lanes down to the river.There is excellent fishing (permit from the Town Hall)when there is water in the river!An outdoor swimming pool is open in the summer months.Steeped in history when you get tired of building sandcastles on the beach, you can discover the ruined castles, palaces and quaint old cobbled medieval towns and cave houses.The sophisticated city of Gandia is just 10 minutes away & was home to the infamous Borgia family.The medieval part of Gandia is traffic free which enables you to explore the alleyways, the Borgia Palace which is magnificent & the Cathedral where the film “Lucretia Borgia” was recently filmed.There are boutique shops & cafes & the famous Lizeran tapas bar.The paseo with its fountains, runs the length of the city & on the side of the road are banks, restaurants and small cafes where you can sit & watch the world go by.On the outskirts of Gandia is the large hypermarket Carrefour. Gandia Playa is about a kilometre from the city & is backed by a long promenade. The beach has much to offer the sports enthusiast with beach & water sports available: it has beach loungers, changing rooms, toilets & childrens playgrounds. The area around the playa also has a scattering of shops with an excellent selection of cafes, bars and restaurants. Oliva – 8km south of Palma de Gandia(or a short cut through the orange groves)is dominated by the ruined castle of Santa Ana which overlooks the old Moorish part of the town, with its steep narrow winding streets and quaint houses. The new town has a selection of shops & supermarkets & on Friday morning there is a huge outdoor market where people come from miles around to sell their home produce-the market sells literally everything. Heading towards the sea from the new town is Oliva Playa not perhaps offering the range of sports and comforts of Gandia but it can be a little quieter. There are other beaches between, Miramar, Bellregard, Daimus, Piles etc. all having small promenades and cafes.South of Oliva are rustic beaches which are backed by tamarisk trees.The quality of the sand is excellent for building sandcastles & the beach gently slopes into the sea. So good is the sand, on occasions it is exported to the Canary Islands. The area is excellent for walking the ice trails & around the old towns:illustrated walks can be either downloaded from the internet or obtained from the local tourist offices. Most sports are catered for & there is an 18 hole Severiano Ballesteros Golf Course south of Oliva.Scuba diving & bikes can be hired locally.Gandia is central to many of the old castles and historic towns. Must sees are the Cathedral, the Indoor Market & the City of Arts & Sciences in Valencia, the Amphitheatre at Sagunto, the Knights Templar castle and medieval town of Peniscola, the fabulous castle where Hannibal lived and Rodrigues Borgia was born in Xativa. Elche just south of Alicante has Roman ruins and a basillica. For more info click onto http://www.valenciaholiday.iowners.net
