Little Venice in Valencia

Port Saplaya is a little harbor area off the main beach of Valencia. It was initially set up as a little village for fishermen and their families. The fisherman could this way pull their boats in and park them in front of their house. So it goes, the fisherman are gone and it has been taken over by rich people who apparently need to park their yachts in front of their houses. In fact ironically (or not) there are signs posted all over telling you to not fish, lest you land a million dollar dinghy. The last aerial shot at the end of these photos wasn't me by the way, I stole that off the internet, but the rest are mine.

a wonderful consideration would be to purchase some of this property for your parents, in their doddering old age!
