If there is a place in Jávea that combines natural beauty, tranquility and accessibility, it is undoubtedly Cala Blanca. Also known as La Caleta, this little hidden gem to the south of the municipality is one of the most appreciated destinations for those looking for an authentic experience on the Costa Blanca.
Located between the Primer Montañar and Cala del Francés, Javea Cala Blanca is just a few minutes' drive from the town centre of Xàbia. Its name comes from the whitish rocks that characterise this stretch of coastline, creating a landscape that contrasts beautifully with the intense blue of the sea.
If we go by car, getting there is easy. From the Arenal de Jávea, we just have to follow the Camí Cala Blanca road, which will take us directly to the pedestrian access. The path is well signposted, and although it is not an area with a large influx of tourists, in high season it is advisable to arrive early, as parking space is limited.
Another highly recommended option is to get there on foot or by bicycle from the Arenal promenade. The route is short, pleasant and allows you to enjoy the views of the coastline and the natural viewpoints that surround the cove. This is an ideal way to start the experience calmly, breathing fresh air and feeling the Mediterranean breeze.
Although it is less known than other coves such as La Granadella or Portitxol, Cala Blanca Jávea Beach offers something unique: tranquillity and unspoilt nature. It is a cove of stone and rock, with an almost wild environment that is maintained without major human modifications.
Cala Blanca La Caleta is divided into two small consecutive coves, separated by rock formations. Both have access to the sea and perfect sunbathing areas. Its small size and its location away from urban areas make the atmosphere very quiet, ideal for those who want to escape the hustle and bustle.
One of the main attractions of Cala Blanca Jávea is the transparency of its waters. Thanks to its rocky bottom, the water maintains turquoise tones and excellent visibility. It is perfect for snorkeling and observing fish, algae and marine formations that inhabit its waters. Let's not forget water shoes, essential for walking among the rocks safely.
Although it is a small cove, it offers several interesting activities that make it a must-see for those exploring Javea.
One of the most recommended routes is the one that connects Cala Blanca with Cala Sardinera, passing through spectacular cliffs and viewpoints. These trails not only give us unique panoramic views of the sea, but also direct contact with the Mediterranean flora. The Cala Blanca viewpoint is one of the most visited, and offers a privileged view of the Javian coastline.
Sea conditions are usually calm, allowing you to enjoy kayaking or paddle boarding in complete safety. It is also an ideal place for snorkeling enthusiasts, as you can explore small caves and underwater corners with lots of marine life.
Like any charming natural enclave, it is advisable to take into account some details to make a visit to Javea Cala Blanca an unforgettable experience.
Although it is accessible all year round, the ideal months to enjoy it are between May and October. During spring and early autumn we will find less influx and a mild climate. In the middle of summer, the cove is still less crowded than other more popular ones, but it is advisable to get up early.
Cala Blanca Jávea is a natural beach, without beach bars or tourist facilities, which is part of its charm. Therefore, we recommend bringing water, food, sunscreen and an umbrella. If we want to eat or have a drink, the closest is the Arenal area, about 5 minutes away by car.
Yes, although as it does not have sand, the little ones will need appropriate footwear to move comfortably. It is a safe place if the bathing areas are respected and the supervision of an adult is always maintained.
As well as being an area of natural interest, Cala Blanca Javea has also become a hotspot for those looking for villas in Javea. Many people are interested in living near this cove because of its tranquillity, scenic beauty and proximity to the sea.
If you are looking for a second home or want to invest on the Costa Blanca, properties in the surroundings of Cala Blanca are highly valued for their strategic location and privileged environment.
We recommend including this cove in any route along the coast of Jávea. Whether it's to spend a few hours on the beach, go on a hiking trail or simply enjoy the view from the viewpoint, Cala Blanca Jávea offers an authentic and different experience.
