Pego is the hidden gem of the Spain´s Costa Blanca, sandwiched between orange groves, marshes and nine mountain ranges. Just a short hop from the hustle and bustle of Denia and yet it feels like another world.
Between Oliva´s coastline and Pego town lays the Marjal, a natural park which is home to numerous endangered species, even ospreys and eagles can be seen circling the airspace above. From June to August there is a free boat trip across the Marjal - or you can go on foot or by bicycle. You can enjoy an immense tranquility and feel totally at one with nature whilst exploring the green valleys and mountains via the network of walkers´ routes to be found in the area. Pego has traditionally been associated with growing rice, though its proximity to Valencia has encouraged the growing of citrus fruits to the detriment of rice. Pego, with its attractive town houses, offers everything from traditional restaurants and bars to local shops. No visit is complete without seeing the Ambra castle, with its spectacular view of the town, the orange groves and the rice fields. Pego´s most popular monument is the Church of the Assumption with its breathtaking architecture of the 17th century and a bell tower topped with small canons.
Denia is a delightful cosmopolitan town set on Spain´s northern Costa Blanca. This typically Spanish town is rich in history and culture, and is also a thriving commercial centre. The town of Denia is set between Gandia and Javea, 85 km north east of Alicante, and lies at the foot of the Montgo mountain. Denia´s harbor is one of the most important in this part of the Costa Blanca, with ferry connections to the Spanish islands of Ibiza, Mallorca and elsewhere. This and the huge fishing fleet have made Denia a very prosperous town over the past years.
The summer temperatures reach 40° C. The beaches are some of the best in Spain, and stretch for 20 Kms north and south of Denia. They consistently win the European Blue Flag for safety and cleanliness. All the main beaches have the benefits of sunshades and beds to hire and a generous sprinkling of beach "chiringuitos" - beach bars popular in Spain, selling alcoholic and soft drinks, ice creams and snacks.

The region's beaches have been awarded 32 prestigious EEC Blue Flags for cleanliness - far more than any other Costa in Spain. And these superb beaches are ideal for young families, being gently shelving and sandy - many with play areas for children, and bars and restaurants for the adults.
The area has become very popular for water sports, including skiing, sailing, jet-skiing, scuba-diving, snorkelling and wind surfing. The many world-class tourist attractions include the Terra Mitica theme and nature park in Benidorm, Europe's largest marine parks, many excellent safari parks and waterfalls.
So whether you are looking for nightlife or tranquillity, the region has something for everyone - from cosmopolitan towns where life goes on 24 hours a day to sleepy little villages where time seems to have passed them by.
