Benissa

Coastal town

Benissa (Valencian:, Spanish: Benisa) is a small town in Spain in the province of Alicante, 275 m above sea level, and one of the oldest towns on the Costa Blanca.

Read moreRead less

The municipality of Benissa has 4 km of coastline linking the towns of Moraira and Calp. The scenery of the area includes cliff tops, rocky coves, sandy beaches and tiny bays along the Benissa Costa. The territory of Benissa also contains terraced vineyards, mountains and palm trees. Spanish village houses, with doorsteps directly onto the street, internal courtyards and deceptively spacious inside. Old finques (a farm or country estate) sit on large plots amongst vineyards with panoramic views to the sea.

Nearby towns along the Costa Blanca are La Fustera, Cala dels Pinets, Cala de La Llobella, Cala l'Advocat, Baladrar and Cap Blanc before reaching Moraira.

The local larder

What almost never fails in a village like Benissa.

Pan de pueblo

From a wood-fired oven if you're lucky; ask what time the batch comes out.

Queso de pastor

There's almost always a cheesemaker nearby; the local shop will know which one.

Miel de la sierra

From local beekeepers: wildflower or rosemary, depending on the hills.

Markets and local produce

Almost every village has its market day and its producers: the cheesemaker, the baker, the vegetable garden next door. Ask at the tourist office or the bar on the square; they'll tell you where to buy straight from the maker.

We haven't confirmed Benissa's market day. Every village has its own: better to ask than to make it up.
