The cape gives you a different angle across Javea and the coastline than the better-known southern areas.
Montgo, La Plana & coast
Cabo de San Antonio in Javea
Cabo de San Antonio forms the northern edge of Javea bay, where sea views, rocky coastline and the Montgo landscape meet. It works particularly well in a route with La Plana, Els Molins and the old town.
Day trips & surroundings
Cabo de San Antonio shows a side of Javea that feels very different from the southern coves. At the northern edge of the bay, open coastline meets the slopes around Montgo and the higher ground of La Plana. That makes the area ideal for an easy local route: stop for the views, continue across La Plana, visit Els Molins or head down towards the old town. If you continue south later in the day, you can finish with a relaxed meal with us in Balcon al Mar.
Cabo de San Antonio sits where the coast meets the landscape around Montgo and La Plana.
Els Molins, La Plana, the old town and the port can all fit naturally into the same day.
01
A different side of Javea
Many visitors first associate Javea with the Arenal, Granadella or Portitxol. Cabo de San Antonio sits on the other side of the bay and changes the perspective. Here the focus is less on a beach day and more on the shape of the coast, elevation and landscape.
02
Think of La Plana and Els Molins as part of the same outing
If you are already driving to Cabo de San Antonio, it makes sense to include La Plana and Els Molins. That turns a viewpoint stop into a varied local loop with both nature and history, after which you can continue towards the old town or return to the coast.
03
Port, old town or Montgo – choose what suits your day
The northern location keeps your options open. Combine coast and town by heading towards the port or historic centre, or stay longer around La Plana and Montgo if landscape matters more. The route works equally well as a short outing or a relaxed half-day.
04
Cross Javea towards the south later on
In the afternoon or evening you can follow the bay through Javea, passing towards the Arenal and then the southern coast around Portitxol, Cap Negre, Cap de la Nau and Balcon al Mar. It gives the day a natural sense of progression instead of repeated backtracking.
05
Finish the day with us in Balcon al Mar
After the viewpoints and coastal drive, slow the pace down on our terrace or at the bar. Stay for a drink, a full dinner or simply whatever you feel like at the time. Mediterranean dishes, fish, burgers, pasta and charcoal-grilled food give mixed groups plenty of choice.
More impressions
Cabo de San Antonio in Javea in pictures
Cabo de San Antonio marks the northern end of Javea bay and forms part of the wider Montgo landscape. From this elevated position the coastline feels especially open, with rock, sea and height giving the viewpoint a character of its own. It is therefore a very natural stop on a drive around Xàbia.
Its location combines well with the port, Els Molins or the old town. You can enjoy the view first and then return to the town without turning the day into a complicated excursion. That mix of landscape, viewpoints and urban areas is what makes northern Javea so varied.
If you head south later, continue the day with us in Balcon al Mar. After the viewpoints and coastal roads, a slower restaurant evening works especially well, whether on the terrace, over Mediterranean food and charcoal-grilled dishes, or simply with a drink at the bar.
