Secret Mirador near Cap Negre

I hesitated for a while to share this little local secret with everybody reading this, but in the end, I decided it would be selfish of me to keep something so special a secret.

Javea has another secret Mirador, just next door to mirador Cap Negre and also Mirador la Falzia. It isn’t officially labelled as a mirador, and I am very happy about this as it means that only a very few people know about it. It can be found at the end of Calle Joaquín Rodrigo, at the end of a short forestall path. Here is what an incredible sight to expect:

This is the perfect place to take a few chairs, relax, observe Javea’s beauty, or surprise someone with a romantic date. Be sure to keep this a secret and enjoy it all for yourself!
