The town of Teulada is located six miles from its sister: Moraira. Teulada is the administrative centre of the town and is where the town hall, police station and hospital are located. Moraira is the coastal resort. Thankfully, it has been spared much of the over-development that many other Spanish coastal towns have succumbed to and retains its charm as a trendy, cosmopolitan resort built on its traditional fishing village origins.
