Guardamar Del Segura hotels - About Guardamar Del Segura
Guardamar del Segura is a municipality of the province of Alicante located at the mouth of the river Segura in southern Valencia (autonomous community) (Spain). It is a Mediterranean resort, with a large pine forest abutting an 11-km-long white sand beach.
Historically an area of fishermen and farmers, Guardamar del Segura is the southernmost point where the Valencian is spoken.
A Phoenician colony called Alonis was the first settlement, and later Arabs called the place Guald-a-amar (River of the Sand), likely the basis for its name today. Besides that, Guardar means safekeeping and mar means ocean in the spanish language, possibly another basis for its name today.
Guardamar hosts local fiestas like Moros i Cristians, L'Encantà, and Fogueres de Sant Joan, which commemorate its history (Iberic, Arab, and Christian). The local spirit is called Aigua de València (champagne, fresh orange, cointreau).
