For some years, Cala En Caló has been a place of visit for many tourists. Getting to know new corners of the Xàbia coastline is one of the actions carried out by hundreds of people. Although its access is only by sea, many try to do it by land.
Loaded with all the gear to spend a day in the small cove, the tourists begin the path to go down to En Caló until they realize that there is no path, that it is a cliff and that access on foot is really impossible.
After the tour, the bathers return to the point of origin but along the way they have not been careful or respectful of the environment.
On the one hand, and according to neighbors, they park on the narrow street, blocking the way for residents. Second, the lack of civility is again conspicuous by its absence. The remains of the consumption they have made have been deposited on the road. Without a doubt, a lack of respect for nature and the environment.
The residents of the area regularly carry out a removal of the rubbish deposited by bathers but the point is that with this attitude, the cove considered 'paradisiacal' will become a landfill. Just as the waste has been left on the road, surely, if it could have been accessed, it would have remained in the small cove and these, in turn, would have ended up in the sea.
That cove has always been called "Cala de la Merda" since the sailors used to get off the boats there to make their bowel movements. It is almost always dirty because the sea accumulates its garbage there due to the waves. Now it turns out that it is a paradisiacal cove. Yes, it is when the sea cleans it. On the other hand, you only have to see Javea in winter to realize that there are not only dirty people among the tourists. A pleasure to see the Arenal full of shit and algae for 10 months. With a smell that feeds. And none of us here protest. Too much to say that Javea is for the natives and we don't even respect it ourselves. Fewer parties and more work.
Ps: I agree, no one sluttier than those from the rocks Take a little walk around the port after the terrible Moors and Christians festivals. Pure shit the party and pure shit what they leave after annoying those of us who get up to work every day. But of course! Blame it on the tourists!! What country!!
That's the problem with constantly putting out articles like ; the most hidden coves, the most beautiful coves, the least visited coves…. These coves are like that, precisely because the environment has preserved them. I have known them since I was a child. In the 70s I remember my parents and sisters visiting all the cliffs by boat. We never spent the day in the cove, we went down for a walk. But eating and others on the boat. We knew that cove as Cala de los Pinos. Q grew on the center rock. This is like a natural park , if you want to preserve it it does not have to be freely accessible . And I understand that everyone has the right. But these coves are to go, see them and leave. There are others more prepared ( apart from beaches ) to be visited and spend the day . Anyway, when I see these photos and I see the chalets sticking out of the cliffs I feel a great sadness. Not everything goes nor is tourism above nature itself
For Bart's people:
Well, I'm telling you now, that one or two tourists, or none, will surely go to the FESTIVITIES OF THE PEOPLE.
There is none in las Peñas, I have never seen any peeing at the door of my house, they are all from here.
What the pigs do on the beaches, perhaps some of them will be from outside, but I assure you that we have plenty of PIGGY and PIGGY to be able to dirty every last centimeter of the coastline.
Ample.
Gema on which you base yourself, who are from Jávea, do you know the color of the piss of tourists or those who are not from Jávea and live and work in Jávea, come on, there are no dirty people everywhere
Well, look, in San Juan I went to visit my father (he lives near the square of the Convent), we were on the balcony talking (4th floor) and when we looked out there were two girls of about 14 or 15 years old dressed in rock clothes doing their needs between two cars parked in broad daylight (about 19.00:XNUMX p.m.), when my father saw that he went home out of shame.
Let's see, that cove is a reflection of HOW SOUGH PEOPLE ARE AT VILLAGE FESTIVALS.
They can't imagine how the town looks every morning.
Ignorant fucking pigs.
I don't understand how Jávea is a tourist destination.
All bad, no services, dirty, expensive, full of people everywhere...
I do not get it
Damn gem you've been comfortable
Well, Gema, you just made a robot portrait of the kind of people who visit us; rude, arrogant and cocky. Thank you Gema for taking off your mask and showing the world how you are.
Where do you see me being arrogant?
What did you read?
I say that people are a SUPINE PIG, and you see that I am arrogant?
I am clean, I take care of my environment, is that being arrogant?
What do you mean by arrogant?
I'm not telling you how far I am from the CERDA people. Come live in the town and put up with the piss on your doorstep during ALL HOLIDAYS, and every weekend of the year, and in the summer I won't even tell you.
Arrogant you say, of course, what you say nice.
Look Gema, decades ago when Javea was a summer town, there was practically no cleaning service, nor was it necessary, there was a garbage truck or two and little else, and the town was clean, right now we are paying a million in services of cleaning and not even like that, everything is made a crap. Something will have to do with the tourism that visits us, I say.
Bart's people, I don't believe that neither all the tourists nor all the locals are dirty or Saints, that is to say, there is everything everywhere. What he says that decades ago the municipality was clean with hardly any cleaning service is not due to tourists, it is due to the fact that people are increasingly uncivil, both one and the other, as simple as going through Montaner Park after a mobile disco to see the shit of the locals or through the parking lot of the Molí after a Saturday night to see the shit of the tourists, the fault lies not with tourists or locals, it is with the uncivic people everywhere and because of everyone pays for it, what is missing is education from parents to their children but to educate a child you must first educate yourself because children learn more from what they see than from what they are told.
Completely true what you say.
We have been living in Jávea for 45 years, and in the last 15 or so we began to notice the neglect in everything, and particularly us with the nightmare of the Fiestas del Pueblo, it is horrible, an anguish, of everything, noise until 5 o'clock the morning, thunderous, and of smells, let's not say, is this having a good time? NO.
No education, a lot of modernity and a lot of nonsense, but the people are very slutty, I speak here, I don't know the tourists, but I do know the ones from here.
Gema everyone piss on your door? I live in the town and they don't pee at my door
The smell of pee in Pedreguer, for example, at parties is atrocious, they pee in the doors, in the portals and wherever I catch them. Especially around the structure they set up for the bulls. Gema is right that you don't want to admit it is another matter.
Well said
Well, but I'm sure our cleaning services leave everything sparkling every day.
And that the constant police presence reminds everyone to be good.
And that our city council is taking measures to safeguard Jávea. They will not allow it to be filled with tacky chalets of Miami Vice-style Russians destroying mountains, with vulgar apartments in which to store in beehives those who live cloistered in other cities during the year and have to come, eat and digest to fill the pipes and provide content to our seas.
A seamless plan.
Chulgui cries disconsolately over the networks every time they mess with him.
Offended cries, poor thing...
He doesn't swim, that is, literally, nothing.
People are bad, Chungui is good.
Country of pusillanimous we have…
-Tourism of mass destruction.
Some reason is not lacking, I have not seen people dirtier than the anglers, who go down to the Barra cove, for example. They leave absolutely everything in a landfill: bait packages, fishing lines, rubbish everywhere... These, of course, do not come from Madrid.
How right you are! No one messes with those pigs, the culprits are only the tourists...
Smart tourism some call it.
The one who has written this article should correct it, tourists are not the only ones to try to go down to the cove nor are they the only ones to dirty it, several people from Xàbia, believing that by knowing the place they would find a way, have tried to go down and have collaborated in fill the road with garbage, so stop throwing balls out, it seems that here we only know how to blame the outsider, the one from here never does anything, Holy shit, too much hypocrisy and discrimination, anyway... where there is none, I don't know can take out.
Discrimination? Who or what exactly? 5 residents do not generate the same environmental impact as 300 tourists at least per day. Nor is it the same in terms of use and overuse of services, infrastructure and resources.
What I ask with my comment is that the editor of this news correct it because the article states that it is only dirty by tourists when it is not, I am from Xàbia and there are many times that I see people from the municipality doing these things , I agree with your comment but you will understand that it is not fair for this article to affirm such a thing, not all tourists are dirty nor are all locals Saints, what I want is for people to stop generalizing so much and throwing balls out, to change the world must first change oneself
Anonymous, how right you are!
Anonymous:
Who said that all tourists are dirty or that all locals are saints? Why do you make that statement?
I make a cut and paste of my previous comment so that you can read it again.

Better now?
In that I give you absolutely right we must change the mode of education
You have copied your comment again when you are the one who does not understand mine. Summary: the article only mentions tourists as guilty (when that word could be replaced by people, people, passers-by, etc.) and with my comment I ask that they correct it because that is not ethical and generates confrontation with tourists and locals when not all are Saints and not all are dirty, so that you understand me, what I ask is that the person who writes the news must be neutral because, then, it is no longer an informative article but an opinion article, the editor must inform, not misinform
Better now?
