What's on in Bellreguard

Bellreguard is a small town on the Costa de Valencia, just south of Gandia, with its old centre set a little inland among the orange groves and its beach, Bellreguard Platja, a flat sweep of sand a short way east. It's a low-key Valencian holiday spot, popular with Spanish families and shaded by the huertas of citrus that run down almost to the dunes — none of the high-rise scale of the bigger resorts.

The Festes del Poble bring the town together for its main fiesta, while La Canyamel dels Borja gastronomic showcase celebrates a local sweet with deep Borgia-era roots. Here's what's on while you're here.
