Gata de Gorgos owes its name to the river (bed) the Gorgos that runs through the village. This river flows into the Mediterranean Sea at Jávea. The village is located at approximately 75m above sea level and has over 6000 inhabitants who mainly speak Spanish and Valencian.

From the 16th to the 18th century, agriculture was the most important source of income for the village. The most important things that were grown during this time were: wheat, (wine) grapes, cane, olives, barley, almonds and, for example, grapes for raisins. Until the middle of the 20th century, agriculture was the most important financial sector for Gata de Gorgos. Due to the deterioration of the quality of the soil, but especially due to the demand for (second) homes on the coast, the former agricultural land has now been built on in many places by, among other things, urbanisation and tourism has become an important source of income.

Gata de Gorgos has a very charming centre that is definitely worth a visit. Those looking for products made of reed will find what they are looking for here. The place is known for its handmade articles (artesanías) made of reed (hats, baskets and the like). The shops that sell these products have earned Gata de Gorgos its nickname ‘Bazaar of the Costa Blanca’.

Beautiful and picturesque town in the interior of the Marina Alta. There are several interesting sites that can be seen from the road, but without a doubt the river ravine is the most picturesque as it has the houses on one side.
