Having lunch at the La Oliva bar in Beniarrés at the foot of the Benicadell is an experience that is nothing short of mystical. Here, breakfast is a religion.

Very nicely laid out, with a table and benches in the shade of the trees. Water trickles out of a fountain, very idyllic, a very beautiful, peaceful place. An oasis of calm!
