About the town of Oliva

Oliva is a thriving market town, busy all year round and not reliant on tourism. You will find a plentiful supply of friendly bars, cafes and restaurants to suit all tastes. The streets of Oliva are full of many interesting shops (both small and large). The long sandy beaches are clean and never crowded, and the sand is golden - the beaches are just gorgeous. We have a 10km fine sand beach backed by an almost continuous natural dune.
there is space for everyone on Oliva's long, sandy beaches The old part of Oliva is like a village within a town, with the added bonus of all that you would want from a family seaside resort. It is the perfect blend of old and new. The old town has many relics of the past, including two large domed churches and the ruins of Castle Santa Anna that overlook the town from the hill. You can see for yourself the influences that different cultures have had on the town over the centuries.
