Between Moraira and Javea is a cozy cove of turquoise waters that requires prior reservation to access it between 8 and 19 hours, which is when it is open. This is the case during the summer season when the capacity of this beautiful Mediterranean cove of 300 meters embedded between cliffs is limited to 400 people. Despite its small size and secluded location, it is well worth a visit. And, as we will see below, many activities can be done in Cala del Moraig (Poble Nou de Benitatxell).
Unlike many of the coves that surround it, Calpe La Fossa beach has companies specialized in nautical activities for all audiences, including the rental of kayaks and other recreational boats, underwater activities, and visits to nearby caves and coves, the most recommended.
The waters of Cala del Moraig are considered to be one of the cleanest and clearest in the Marina Alta.
It is not surprising, therefore, that many of those who drop by, take the opportunity to practice water sports that allow them to enjoy the warmth of its waters and underwater life.
Rent kayaks, sups, and pedal boats at RentalKayaksUp, visit nearby coves, and make stops to snorkel and admire the marine biodiversity of the area of Poble Nou de Benitatxell.

In addition to the water, it is also possible to enjoy the unique orography offered by the Cala del Moraig and its surroundings.
The best example of this is the route of the cliffs of Benitaxell. An excursion that starts at the parking lot of Cala Moraig and ends at Cala Llebeig. In total, 4 km of walking can be done perfectly with children and we recommend you bring good shoes and plenty of water.
If you are looking for something shorter, go by car to the Falla del Moraig or Puig de la Llorença, from where you can see the entire Marina Alta
