    The Old Town

Situated on the east coast of Spain, Jávea (Xàbia) is a delightful, family-friendly resort with sunshine and a warm climate all year round. The town has three main areas, each with its own character.

The Arenal

The Arenal beach area has access for wheelchair users. This popular area is a haven for holidaymakers, with its beautiful Blue Flag sandy beach.

The promenade is perfect for wheelchair users, with access to many of the shops, bars, restaurants, cafes and ice-cream parlours along the edge of the beach. Changing facilities for disabled visitors are available in the high season.

The Port

This busy working fishing port is active all year round. You can buy the fish once it is unloaded, or try it in the local restaurants. Relax in the peaceful surroundings and watch the boats and yachts go about their daily business.

The Old Town

For the adventurous wheelchair user (who doesn’t mind the odd cobble and hill), Jávea’s old town has a delightful array of shops, bars and cafes set among some fantastic architecture.
