Villajoyosa has got plenty of surprises up its sleeves – come and explore!

A visit to Villajoyosa in the province of Alicante will immerse you in a lovely destination where the Mediterranean Sea and history rub shoulders, creating an unforgettable experience. Fancy coming with us to enjoy the sights, the coves and beaches, and the incredible seaside atmosphere?

What to see in Villajoyosa 

The old town, which was listed an Historic-Artistic Site, still captures the essence of the former walled city. The layout of the streets revolves around the River Amadorio and extends all the way to the coast.

Wandering through the narrow streets of Villajoyosa is a delight. You’ll find yourself surrounded by traditional houses that showcase the colourful character of the Mediterranean, particularly on the seafront where the old fisherman houses, painted in bright colours, paint an iconic picture.

Another point of interest in Villajoyosa is Nuestra Señora de la Asunción Parish Church, which is integrated into the town walls and can be seen from Costera de la Mar street. We recommend taking a stroll here to admire the Renaissance walls, which are of architectural significance.

We’d also encourage you to visit the Valencian Museum of Chocolate, which will throw you into the gastronomic tradition that is part of the destination’s identity. You’ll also want to set some time aside to see pretty San Antonio Chapel.

During your time in Villajoyosa, make sure you explore the fascinating coast. Along this stretch of the coastline, you will find peaceful beaches and hidden coves with defence towers that have been protecting the horizon for centuries.

To name but a few, there’s El Charco Tower, sitting on the cliffs affording spectacular views, Aguiló Tower and San José Tower, also known as Hércules Tower, which is one of the best Roman funerary towers in Spain.

Close to the towers are some of the most beautiful beaches in the area, namely Torres beach, El Charco beach, La Caleta beach, El Paraíso beach and Racó del Conill, a nudist beach which is ideal for anyone in search of peace and quiet. Come for a getaway to Villajoyosa!
