Timeless Charm in the Hills

The historic center of Teulada, located just 7 km inland from Moraira, offers a tranquil, authentic glimpse into traditional life on the Costa Blanca. With its honey-colored stone buildings, narrow cobblestone streets, and fortified 16th-century church (Iglesia de Santa Catalina Mártir), Teulada is steeped in history and rural elegance.

Strolling through the old town, you’ll spot beautifully preserved riuraus—arched structures once used to dry grapes for the local raisin trade—as well as manor houses with iron balconies and carved stone portals.

Best Kept Secrets

  • Sala de Jurats i Justícies: A restored 17th-century courtroom and town hall, often missed by casual visitors.
  • Chapel of Sant Vicent Ferrer: A quiet pilgrimage site with a serene setting and lovely views.
  • Local bakeries: Hidden on side streets, still using traditional wood-fired ovens—perfect for a morning “coca” or fig tart.
