Gandia Tourist InformationGandia is a town of two halves. The main commercial town, actually a city of nearly 60 000, is located 65km south of Valencia, a few kilometres inland. Four kilometres away on the coast is the other Gandia, the Playa de Gandia. Playa de Gandia is a truly beautiful and very Spanish resort. The long, broad, sandy beach fringed with palm trees and a well-kept promenade is perhaps the best on the whole Costa Blanca. There is a busy fishing port or Grau and a large marina. Many people from Madrid and the north of Spain have second homes in Gandia and in nearby Cullera. Both Gandia and Cullera attract a number of French visitors.Gandia is also a popular day trip for locals from as far away as Valencia particularly at the weekend and on friday and saturday nights the town comes to life. In summer time the town is thronged and boasts a good nightlife. Gandia was once home to the infamous Borja, or Borgia, family and the Palacio Ducal de los Borja, or Ducal Palace, is a magnificent building of major historical interest. The home of the Duque Francisco de Borja dates from the fifteenth century and contains an impressive collection of the Duc's belongings. One-hour guided tours in Spanish are offered with an accompanying leaflet in English. Fideuá, a noodle-based variant of paella, was reputedly invented in Gandia. Every June Gandia hosts the Concurso Internacional de Fideuá y Gastronomía
