This experience can be enjoyed all year since we have ways of making sure that your stay with us will be an experience for all of your senses.
Benissa offers all sorts of leisure options. Shopping in the Old Town with its Medieval style shops selling local farmhouse products, such as the renowned embutidos (sausages) and also the "Coca María" (sponge cake), "Els Caspellets" and the "Cocas" (savoury pastries and breads) that are sold in any of the town's baker's shops. The mercadillo (street market) on Saturday mornings, where you will be surrounded by the colours and perfumes of the fresh fruit and vegetables.
Enjoy customs such as the "pelota valenciana" matches held on Sunday afternoons at the municipal "trinquete" (ball court), or the "Volta en Carro" (mule and cart rally) that takes place mid August and shows us the traditional form of transport used by our ancestors to get to work or in the moments of leisure.
Take a walk through our old town or along the coastline and stop off at any of the street cafés, bar or restaurants to savour the tasty local food or try innovative international cuisine. Treat yourself to a drink at one of the terraces, many of which offer live music, or enjoy the night life in the bars and pubs. On the other hand during the summer season you san relax and enjoy the sea breeze at one of the "Chiringuitos" (beach bars) located alongside the sea-shore.
