It is surrounded by a strip of dunes anchored by vegetation and a <strong>pine forest<\/strong>. Around the dune area, you can visit the <strong>archaeological sites<\/strong> of the <strong>Islamic Caliphal R\u00e1bita<\/strong> and the <strong>Phoenician city of La Fonteta<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Babilonia <\/strong>is the following beach and has 1 km of golden sand. This beach holds a very unique history, particularly in the houses located right on the beach. This small neighborhood of Guardamar was established in the early 20th century and was named after a picnic area next to a water well called \u201cCasa Babilonia\u201d. Today, these houses do not comply with coastal laws and some have been demolished.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Centre Beach<\/strong>, 427 m long and <strong>Blue Flag<\/strong> certified, is the closest beach to the town center.
