Anna

Many call it 'The Blue Lagoon', because of the crystal clear waters of the large lake. The lake itself is fed by mountain streams, ensuring that the water is always clear and blue - in fact, so clear that you can see the golden carp swimming in the shallow waters.

The lake is bordered by many trees reminiscent of an English park, and the ducks and swans that have made it their home complete the picture.

In the summer, there is a shallow lake on the other side of the road, again fed by mountain streams ,where you can swim. Or take a rowing boat out on the main lake if you are feeling more energetic!

There is a nice restaurant near to the picnic area, and a couple of lakeside ice cream shops for refreshment. Or bring your own food and have a typically English picnic, in a typically English setting in the heart of Spain!

There is also a camp site near to the lake.

How to get there:

Find Enguerra on the map (about 15 kms from Xativa - also spelt Jativa)
