The city of Cullera is located just 38 km (23.6 miles) south of the capital of the region, Valencia, on the shores of the Mediterranean sea, and has a population of 24,121 inhabitants.

Although most of Cullera sits on a vast plain, the Mountain of Cullera rises up above the city at 225 m high. The lower course of the Júcar river flows through Cullera, providing a vast network of irrigation channels, which enrich the orchards, orange trees, rice fields, olive trees, carob trees and fruit trees in the whole of the municipality.

Cullera enjoys a dry thermo-Mediterranean climate, with gentle temperatures (above 17ºC, 62ºF). The average annual temperature is 16ºC (60ºF): January 9.8ºC (49.6ºF) and July 24ºC (75ºF).

Cullera is the perfect destination for fun and leisure:

Spend a day out at the Aquópolis Aquapark and enjoy unforgettable experiences on the water rides.

Every Thursday from 9 am to 1pm, market stalls are set up in the historic centre around the municipal market place, selling music, shoes, clothes, pottery and other miscellaneous objects. The stalls are also set up on Friday between 6.30pm and 9.30pm in July and August.

The tourist train offers two different itineraries. Although both routes set off from the seafront by Calle Caminás, one heads towards the amazing Castle site and the other travels towards the Cave of Pirate Dragut, located in the hamlet of Faro.

Cullera’s harbour is also well worth a visit. You can watch the fishing boats come in during the afternoon and then buy fresh fish at the fish market (lonja) from Monday to Friday after 4pm.

 On summer nights, you can have a drink under the moonlit sky in one of the beach bars, which feature lively entertainment options. The music starts out light, to suit the older patrons in the early hours of the evening, but as the night goes on, the atmosphere switches to a club mood that will delight younger tourists, who will also love the range of pubs in the San Antonio district.

Children will love the trampoline area and the kiddie park located by the seafront in front of Florazar I.

Dance enthusiasts are also in for a treat, and should head to Parque de San Antonio to dance the night away as they enjoy the orchestra and a drink on the terrace.

 Don’t forget to stroll around the Pozo quarter near the Market. The narrow white streets of the old Jewish Quarter retain a nostalgic atmosphere.
