 | | Beyond the Malvarrosa is the low-key suburb of Alboraia, the birthplace of 145;horchata; (orxata in Valenciano), a refreshing drink made from tiger nuts, which is served in old-fashioned cafés with tables out on the squares. |
 | | The water is a tad murky, owing to the proximity of the port (the beaches south of the city are cleaner), but it is still fine for swimming. |
 | | The amenities are excellent with rows of stripey beach huts, sun-loungers for rent, snack bars, playgrounds and showers along the whole length of the beach from the port to Alboraia. |
