El Poble Nou de Benitatxell is located in the north of the province in the region of La Marina Alta. Its square-shaped town has two distinct areas. In the middle we can find the Alto de Llorença, where the urban and historical centre is found: it is a scenario of gentle terraced promontories dedicated to agriculture. Nowadays, a rich landscape of almond and muscatel grape crops is preserved, dotted with riuraus, the typical agricultural constructions where the sultanas are dried. At the same time, there are also several housing developments that have led to an important activity in services and tourism. The urban core is situated away from the coast on a hill, and still retains a traditional village aspect. The other part is the coast, which is very mountainous, with large, steep cliffs between which there are some calas, such as Llebeig, Almoraig and the nudist beach of Los Tiestos. Until not so long ago this rugged and difficult coastline led to the activity of the "pesqueras", which consisted of fishing by hand sitting on a reed platform hanging from the cliffs, which was reached by a rope ladder.
