Dénia blends a rich history with an easy-going Mediterranean rhythm.
The silhouette of its medieval castle rises above the town, overlooking the fishing port and the old Baix la Mar district.
Here you feel the pulse of daily life: fishing boats returning with the day’s catch, children playing by the water, and terraces filled with tapas and laughter.
A city that moves to the rhythm of the sea.

Dénia’s castle, built in the 11th century, tells the story of Moorish rule and Christian reconquest.
From its towers you can see the sea and the surrounding countryside, while the archaeological museum within the walls brings the town’s history to life.
In the narrow streets of the old town, past and present blend effortlessly together.

In 2015, Dénia was named a UNESCO Creative City of Gastronomy.
Its cuisine celebrates the sea and the land – fresh fish, seasonal vegetables and rice dishes.
Taste the famous red prawn of Dénia, a plate of arròs a banda, or enjoy modern Mediterranean creations in one of the many local restaurants.
Here, food is more than a meal – it’s a way of life.

To the north stretch the wide sandy beaches of Les Marines, perfect for families and water sports.
To the south lie the rocky coves of Les Rotes, with crystal-clear water and peaceful spots for swimming or diving.
Behind the town, the Montgó Massif rises – a natural park with hiking trails and panoramic views.

All year long, Dénia celebrates life with festivals and traditions.
From the Fallas in March to the Bous a la Mar in July, when bulls dash toward the sea in a centuries-old custom.
In the evenings, terraces fill with music, tapas and laughter.
Dénia is not just a destination – it’s a feeling of coming home by the sea.
