Moraira – Costa Blanca - Spain
Moraira is situated about 30 kilometres north of Benidorm and can
be reached from the AP-7 motorway and from the N-332 coast road,
it is about 55 minutes from Alicante airport (using the motorway).
About 40 years ago it was just a small group of
cottages gathered along the northern Costa Blanca coastline, these
days Moraira is a popular but unspoilt coastal resort with plenty
to commend it. Formerly administered by the nearby town of Teulada,
Moraira is now an independent municipality and has developed as
an exclusive holiday resort set in a protected bay and surrounded
by beautiful mountainous countryside. It is considered to be the
"Jewel in the Crown" of the Costa Blanca Coast.
Until the recent development of the tourist industry,
Moraira depended mostly on fishing for its survival but was also
a renowned area for the growing of Muscatel grapes and for the making
of fine wines from those grapes. The area still produces fine wines
but it's economy is more reliant on tourism these days.
It would seem that what has protected Moraira is
good administration and planning by the Town Hall by not allowing
any high rise development. There are only two or three small hotels,
most people either owning or renting holiday homes. Moraira's permanent population
of around 10,000 still rises considerably during the summer months
but not to the extent of other towns along this coast. Despite this,
it is still a perfect location for a holiday as the cooling sea
breezes keep temperatures at an acceptible level during the hot
summer months making it enjoyable rather than stifling, the backdrop
of mountains gives protection from cold northerly winds in the winter,
keeping temperatures higher.
Moraira has a couple of excellent 'Blue Flag' beaches
which are safe and clean and great for families. The harbour is
home to the Moraira Club Nautico which was inaugurated in 1985.
The harbour is also the location for the popular Lonja (fish market)
which is held every day (except Mondays). Moraira's weekly market
is held every Friday beside the beach area. Teulada's weekly market
is on a Wednesday. There is a wide variety of shops and excellent
restaurants to suit all tastes and pockets.
