Moraira - The Town & Area
Moraira lies in a bay, on the South Eastern coast of Spain, between the larger resorts of Javea and Calpe, 80 kms (1 hr) from Alicante and 110 kms (1.5 hrs) from Valencia airports with excellent motorway and coastal roads from both. The town has pleasantly grown from a small fishing village to an attractive holiday and retirement resort retaining its considerable charm that attracts visitors from all over Europe and is particularly popular with Spanish from Madrid and Valencia. It has an impressive marina, excellent variety of local shops, weekly open markets, harbor-side fish restaurants and bars still retaining their Spanish character.

The two main local gently-shelving sandy beaches, awarded the prestigious EEC Blue Flags for cleanliness, are well tended and very safe for family bathing. In fact the whole of the Costa Blanca has 34 Blue Flag beaches - 3 times the number of any other Costa (Costa del Sol has 8). Other local leisure facilities include 3 large Golf courses, tennis, football, squash, all water sports, boat hire and trips, horse-riding, go-kart racing tracks for both adults and children, a small fairground and three good night-clubs for all ages. There are too many restaurants of interest and good quality to list here but we can mention that there are 8 Michelin recommended restaurants in the immediate area with three of them being star rated and not expensive either.

The valley of Moraira has no hint of towering hotels and apartment blocks, due to very strict planning controls, and the luscious green countryside is just dotted with whitewashed independent luxury villas and low-rise 'pueblo-style' apartment complexes mingling with pine woods and cultivated vine terraces and orange groves, providing an idyllic setting for those wanting total peace and privacy. The area remains exclusively for villa owners and individuals who prefer and enjoy the independent holiday, as opposed to the package type, and home-from-home comforts.


Moraira - It's Climate.
Moraira enjoys a typical subtropical Mediterranean climate, with cool sea breezes in summer and protection by surrounding mountains against the cold North winds in winter. The area averages nearly 3,000 hours of sunshine each year and the average temperature easily exceeds 20 degrees. In 1986 the World Health Organization recommended the climate of the area as one of the most equitable in the world - neither too hot in the summer nor too cold in the winter. On average it can boast 325 sunny days each year making it an ideal all year round destination.


Moraira - House Prices
Just inland from Moraira are some of the most luxurious country houses on the Coast. Planning controls have been very strictly adhered to and this reflects in the beauty of the area. Moraira itself is a lively tourist town whilst retaining much of a "fishing village" atmosphere. House prices are high but apartments can be found at reasonable prices. These let extremely well in the summer and are a good investment.
