The small coastal town of Moraira is part of Teulada municipality and lies along the coast road from Calpe and next to Benissa. With few hotels and package holidays it is notable for it's tranquility, with quiet urban streets and a relatively new sports harbour and yacht club.

The town has two blue flag sand beaches, one beside Moraira and the second along the coast road at Portet that are ideal for family bathing and watersports. Moraira has on average over 320 sunny days a year making it an all year round destination, with the beautiful Marina, and many shops and restaurants.
Moraira is known as a centre of gastronomy on the Costa Blanca and has a number of fine international restaurants such as the "La Sort" in the port and the "Dauphin" in Portet that organize a Gourmet Festival in autumn with invited famous international chefs.

Apart from this, of course you still have the fine traditional Valencia, Calpe, Alicante, Altean cuisine based on rice dishes such as Paella and Arroz a la Banda.


The fiesta calendar includes the Moscatel Fiesta in September, the Moors and Christians in the second week of June and San Vicente Ferrer after Easter with a procession, bull running and firework display.
