Lying on the Costa Blanca coastline some 10km south of Benidorm is the charming seaside town of Villajoyosa. Famous for its brightly coloured houses and for its chocolate, Villajoyosa has a name which means 'Jewelled Town'.
History tells us that Villajoyosa has survived economically by means of its fishing industry, and fishing, today, remains an important earner for the town's residents - the busy harbour and thriving afternoon fish market are colourful features of daily life in the town of Villajoyosa.

The bright blue, yellow and red houses were painted so that fishermen could recognise their home while out at sea and therefore safely find their way home.
The manurfacture of chocolate has been a major feature in Villajoyosa since the nineteenth century, earning it the nickname 'Chocolate Heaven'.
Villajoyosa is a regular stop-off point for the many free 'blanket trips' which operate along this coast, so if you are visiting the region and fancy a free trip to the town, look out for these trips.
Villajoyosa has a warm and temperate Mediterranean climate with mild winters and hot summers and very little rainfall. It has some fine sandy beaches and clear sparkling waters.
