Situated on the Costa Blanca, Benitachell (El Poble Nou de Benitatxell) is an independent village that was founded in 1698. It is an important service centre for the surrounding agricultural areas of the coast, especially for the cultivation of Muscatel grapes.
Many visitors have fallen in love with this friendly village of narrow streets, colourful houses and stunning mountain and sea views.The pace of life here is gentle and timeless. People still collect water from the natural spring in the village, gather for a chat in the covered market and meet at a local bar for lunchtime tapas.
As with most villages, situated in the heart of Benitachell, is the church. Iglesia de Santa Maria Magdalena is a building of great architectural value, and an absolute must for visitors. At the highest point of the village centre, it can be clearly seen for miles around.
The municipality is divided into two very distinct parts, separated by the Llorenç Serra Mountains, with some outstanding views!
The inland area is agricultural (vineyards, almond and carob) and consists of a network of ravines, hollows and terraced hills and dotted by typical farm buildings. This is where the village is located.
Benitachell has two miles of coastline and the coastal zone occupies a third of the municipality. This area is very hilly with high cliffs, amongst which are numerous small coves. The "Moraig" beach is very sheltered and an excellent place for bathing and relaxing.
