Cap de la Nau, or Cabo de la Nao, stands as the easternmost cape of the Costa Blanca, situated on a striking headland beyond the town of Javea (Xabia) in Alicante province. This natural viewpoint is renowned for its impressive cliffs and sweeping views over the Mediterranean Sea. A historic lighthouse marks the cape's point, but visitors must admire it from a distance.
For those exploring the area, a short and easy walk leads to several clifftop viewpoints, perfect for taking in the dramatic coastal scenery. On particularly clear days, the Balearic Islands can be glimpsed on the horizon. The location is especially popular for watching sunsets, offering a memorable way to conclude a day on the Costa Blanca.
While visiting, it's useful to know that parking is limited, so arriving early is advisable, especially during peak times. Although there's a seasonal restaurant nearby, public toilets are not available out of season. Visitors might also encounter a colony of feral cats, lovingly tended to by local residents.
