What is there to do around Gandia?

With a fairly long stretch between the beach and the city centre, Gandia exudes a relaxed, sleepy atmosphere where locals and tourists leisurely mix together in the idyllic surroundings. Despite the peaceful nature and picturesque scenery, Gandia has yet to reach the heights of other tourist destinations around Spain, though that has become part of the charm. The city centre tends to be the busiest area, yet even at peak times there is enough room to casually peruse the shops and enjoy the fresh food in the welcoming restaurants. The quiet reputation of Gandia may suggest a place that is low on attractions, yet there are plenty of things to do around the city: Palau Ducal dels Borja Gandia is arguably the most popular landmark, boasting stunning architecture and offering an insight into the cultural history of Spain’s east coast. To really satisfy any thirst for culture, there are many museums dotted about the city, providing good value for money.

How do visitors get around Gandia?
