Weekend getaways in the Region of Valencia: Have fun and unwind

Weekend getaways in the Region of Valencia hold the promise of plenty of discoveries and explorations. We’re talking about beaches and coves, incredible cities and inland landscapes that will fast become your favourite places to unwind – here’s some inspiration!

Things to do in a weekend in the Region of Valencia: the beach 

How do you fancy spending a couple of days enjoying the Mediterranean Sea? We’ve got three very different ideas for you but they’ve all got plenty of things to see and do. First, you can discover the coves snuggled between Peñíscola and Alcalà de Xivert/Alcossebre in Sierra de Irta. Here the rocks of the mountains stretch down to the shore, creating wild and beautiful scenery. 

Another option is to take a dip in Oliva, where you can also explore wetlands that have been listed a natural park. Alternatively, some of the best coves in the Costa Blanca would make the perfect backdrop to your days on the coast. 

Romantic weekend getaway in the Region of Valencia 

Are you planning a weekend getaway for two? The Region of Valencia will add a touch of romance to your experiences. You can walk hand in hand through beautiful villages like Vilafamés where the narrow streets, plazas and sights make the perfect background to your photos. 

You could also visit iconic places like the viewing points in Jávea and, of course, be left in awe by the starry night sky in Titaguas, home to La Loma Astronomical Viewing Point. Don’t forget that in July you can enjoy the incredible Night of Candles, when the village is lit up in magic. 

Weekend getaway with kids in the Region of Valencia 

Your weekend getaways with kids in the Region of Valencia offer plenty of possibilities: you can discover castles and dinosaurs in Morella or find out more about how toys are a part of local history in the fascinating museums in Ibi and Onil. 

Your weekend getaways with kids could also take you to a spectacular museum and cinema dedicated to science and discovery where your little ones will be able to play and interact with the displays. We’re talking about Museu de les Ciències and the incredible Hemisfèric in València. 

Your weekend getaways in the Region of Valencia can be as versatile as you like. If you enjoy hiking, we invite you to explore Sierra de Espadán Natural Park with this itinerary for Alcudia de Veo. Or you could head to Xàtiva, a monumental destination you’ll fall in love with. 

And last but not least, we recommend embarking on a spectacular trail known as The Cathedral of Hiking in La Vall de Laguar. What you decide to do is up to you!
