More than a town: uncover the hidden secrets of La Nucía

La Nucía, set in a privileged valley between the Mediterranean and the mountains of Alicante, is far more than a peaceful inland village. It’s a destination where rich agricultural roots meet unexpected modern flair. Discover its most fascinating secrets:

• Town or elite sports hub? It may sound surprising, but this municipality is a European City of Sport. Its Camilo Cano Sports City boasts 120,000 m² of world,class facilities that rival major capitals. Elite athletes come here for a reason.

• A name with flavour: Its name comes from the Arabic Naziha, meaning “place of delight” or “pleasant retreat”. The Arabs were captivated by its freshness and fertile lands, and it’s easy to see why even today.

• A treasure hunter’s dream: Every Sunday, the industrial area transforms into one of Alicante’s most impressive flea markets. From timeless antiques to the most curious finds, if it exists, you’ll find it here.

• Cool waters in the height of summer: In the old town lies the Font de la Favara, a natural park with a refreshing waterfall that feels like nature’s own air conditioning. The perfect escape from the summer heat.

• 360° views to remember: This is a true panoramic viewpoint. In one glance, you can spot the Peñón de Ifach in Calpe, the skyline of Benidorm and the peaks of Aitana, all at once.
