Alboraya’s architecture reflects a blend of its agricultural heritage and Mediterranean influences. The town’s traditional houses, known as “alquerías,” are scattered throughout its rural areas and showcase the classic architecture of old Valencian farmhouses. A visit to the historic Church of the Assumption, built in the 14th century, offers a glimpse into the town’s religious history and architectural evolution over the centuries.
The town is also known for its proximity to Port Saplaya, often referred to as the “Little Venice” of Valencia due to its canals and brightly colored houses that line the marina. The area is perfect for a leisurely walk, offering beautiful views of the Mediterranean Sea and opportunities for waterfront dining.
La Patacona beach is another major attraction, drawing tourists with its expansive golden sands and crystal-clear waters. It is a more peaceful alternative to the crowded city beaches of Valencia, yet still offers a wide range of activities, from beachside restaurants to water sports.
