When you mention The words Costa Blanca, most people see Benidorm, miles of skyscapers, thousands of hotels, nightclubs and noisy teenagers. But the Costa Blanca is not just Benidorm. Travel just over 30 miles north and you will discover the fishing village of Moraira. These 30 miles are like being on a different planet. In Moraira buildings cannot be over 4 storey high. You can count the streets on one hand only but it has character and you can still find whatever you need. The shops are small but well stocked. There are numerous bars and restaurants serving interesting tapas and lovely local dishes. The marina is lively and increadably clean, so clean in fact that you can watch the fish swimming around the boats. There are two beautiful sandy beaches and a whole range of watersport facilities on offer. Every weekends the village put on free concerts or dance displays in the square by the church. Moraira is a little paradise. It is never dead, even in the winter there are fiestas and entertainments in the local bar and in the summer it is never roudy. Moraira is one of these places which seem to have escaped the ravage of tourism and modernisation. It is a modern little place, but with the charm of the past - a real little treasure.

I totally agree with you. Moraira is amazing and unspoilt by tourism, hence my hubby and I buying a house between Benitachell and Moraira.
