Gandia is a large city on the east coast of Spain, less famous than its counterparts, but just as beguiling nonetheless. Gandia has not attracted much foreign tourism, much to the pleasure of the Spaniards who have the city all to themselves, but has the all the elements to provide the visitor with an authentic and distinctive experience.
With a thriving and bustling commercial centre, historical monuments and unique architecture, Gandia city centre is a working Spanish city, where the daily life of the citizens progresses without the impact of the international tourist industry.

As well as contemporary boutiques and fine jewellery retailers; stocking brands such as Tag Heuer and Omega, Moraira has some fine delicatessens where cured jamon serrano’s hang above counters, laden with fresh, vivid red and green peppers, nestled between huge jars of intense, peppery olives jostling for position with rich, golden manchego cheeses and smoky, red chorizo sausages.
