Discover Dénia
A Mediterranean city between the sea and Montgó, where heritage, beaches and gastronomy are part of the landscape. Discover some of the places that best reflect Dénia’s history, natural surroundings and seafaring character.
Dénia Castle, Les Roques and the historic centre
Climb up to Dénia Castle, set on a hill in the heart of the city, to journey through centuries of history and take in views of the Mediterranean and Montgó. At its foot, the Les Roques neighbourhood preserves part of the medieval street layout, while the city-centre streets reveal the heritage and historical evolution of ancient Daniya.
Montgó, Cape San Antonio and Mediterranean nature
Montgó Natural Park rises beside the sea and dominates the landscape of Dénia and the Marina Alta. Its trails wind through an area of outstanding natural value, among Mediterranean vegetation, viewpoints and ancient agricultural terraces. Towards the coast, Cape San Antonio completes a landscape where mountain and Mediterranean meet.
Les Rotes, Les Marines and Dénia’s gastronomy
