The jewel of the Costa Blanca - Two European Blue Flag Beaches
Moraira has 2 sandy beaches both awarded the European blue flag for cleanliness. The popular El Portet beach has just been modernised with new palm trees and walkways and can be found past the Marina. Moraira Ampolla beach is slightly larger and can be found behind the castle.
The town is full of colourful new shops, bars and restaurants to suit all tastes and pocket size. In the summer months evening craft markets line the streets well into the night. There are several good supermarkets and a couple of night clubs and internet cafés.
