The charming Mediterranean district of La Canuta

La Canuta is a charming residential area just west of the famed town of Calpe. Via the AP-7 highway the community is just 44 minutes away from the city of Alicante and its international airport, while the city of Valencia is about an hour and thirty away. It’s well serviced roads connect La Canuta to many nearby cities and locales, including the seaside resort town of Benidorm which is only a 20-minute drive away. The Calpe tram station is a 1 km walk away, where the number 9 tram offers convenient connections to both Dénia and Benidorm. To the north of La Canuta is the magnificent Sierra d’Oltá nature preserve and hiking area with superb vistas of the surrounding townscape and Spain’s Costa Blanca, while to its east are the beautiful beaches of Calpe – the Playa del Arenal-Bol, Cantal Roig and Platja de la Fossa, all within a 10-minute drive.
