Description
Moraira is an exclusive and idyllic coastal town on the Costa Blanca North, which originally originated as a modest fishing village belonging to the nearby municipality of Teulada.
The history of the place is closely linked to the defense against pirates, with the iconic 18th-century castle on the beach still being the symbol of the city. The climate is exceptionally mild and stable, with more than 300 days of sunshine per year and a microclimate that is protected by the surrounding mountains.
The main attractions are the charming marina, the weekly market full of local products, and the brilliant bays such as "El Portet" with their azure blue water. The local gastronomy is of a very high standard, where one can enjoy fresh fish dishes and the famous sweet Muscat grapes in numerous award-winning restaurants and bistros. For sports enthusiasts, the nearby Ifach Golf Club offers a beautiful course, while the coastline is ideal for sailing, diving, and other Mediterranean water sports.
The residents form an elegant mix of local Spaniards and wealthy international residents who greatly appreciate the peace and the strict building regulations without high-rise buildings. The surroundings are characterized by rolling vineyards, lush pine trees, and a rugged coastline that offers breathtaking views over the Mediterranean Sea. Living in Moraira offers many advantages, including a safe and luxurious living environment, a relaxed atmosphere away from mass tourism, and an excellent quality of life in one of the most beautiful regions of Spain.
