Cala del Moraig & Cova dels Arcs
Tucked between Moraira and Jávea along the rugged Costa Blanca cliffs, Cala del Moraig is a private postcard come to life: crystal-clear turquoise waters, a pebbled beach hugged by dramatic limestone walls, and the unmistakable allure of Cova dels Arcs—a sea-carved cave with majestic arches and ancient stories echoing through its chambers.
Cala del Moraig is a 300 m-long Blue Flag cove—ideal for swimming, sunbathing, and spotting hidden marine life. In summer, lifeguards, a beach bar, and even amphibious chairs make it accessible and friendly for everyone. Just steps from the shore lies the Cova dels Arcs, a stunning cave carved over 60,000 years by wind and waves. With its elegant stone arches and ocean-carved windows, it’s a photographer’s dream.
Climb to the Mirador de la Falla del Moraig via a short cliff path for sweeping views of the cove and sea. This geological fault—declared a Natural Monument in 2022—is a stunning showpiece of nature’s power. Adventurous souls can continue on to Cala Llebeig or Cala dels Testos via scenic cliff trails—just bring water, sneakers, and a sense of wanderlust.
