In Gata #LoTípic is to buy with the 5 senses
There are towns that fall in love, towns that attract you as soon as you get to them. This is the case of Gata. This town is located very close to other coastal towns of great affluence such as Jávea, Denia or Moraira, and it will reach your heart. It is a perfect corner to make charming purchases, that charm that is achieved through tradition and the proximity that the shops of all life give off. You will buy with the five senses and we will explain how.
VIEW
Surely more than once when you go shopping, you wish you could see fewer cars driving and fewer people. Sometimes we need our eyes to rest and relax, that is, to focus on simple things. Today, the stimulus overload means that we do not enjoy small details or simply do not find what we are looking for because we see too many products. In Gata, you will see many beautiful things. And you will do it as soon as you arrive because your eyesight will relax. You can approach the Plaza de España and crumble with your eyes the handicrafts, such as a straw hat or a wicker furniture. You will see the different shades of green that the Gorgos River channel gives us. You will see people greeting each other on the street and ideal terraces where you can take a break and refresh yourself. Come to Gata one day and take a look. Your eyes will thank you.
HEARING
Strolling through the streets and shopping with a large load of noise pollution is not the same as walking with the tune of birds. Gata is integrated into nature and therefore her daily noises are more than affordable. They are even pleasant, because when it is windy, you can hear the wind. When it rains, you hear it rain. And when you go to a store, they listen to you. The proximity of small businesses and personalized service make it possible.
TOUCH
When we are shopping, we tend to touch the products … It is as if our hands have to approve what our eyes already want. Well, in Gata you want to touch everything. You will not be able to pass up the opportunity to hold an artisan ice cream cone in your hands or take a typical “coca”.
You will want to know the touch of many decorative products that you will love for your home or fill your fingers with unique jewelry.
SMELL
When you get to Gata and stroll through its streets, you will feel the aroma of fresh bread. Each oven keeps its ancestral formulas to make its bread and its typical products. And there is nothing comparable to the recipes of a lifetime made in the Gata ovens with care and top quality products. As with the butchers, each house gives a personal touch to their sausages. Although different, they are all delicious and will not only delight your nose, they will also transport you to another time.
TASTE
Restaurants and bars in Gata bear the “slowlife” stamp. Here, more than eating, there is a gastronomic experience. Come to know the flavor of a good lunch in the town, with its plate of olives and its good sandwich, or a “picaeta” on the terraces, with typical “tapas” from the area. If what you prefer is to stay for lunch or dinner, you will find restaurants with homemade food ready to delight your taste buds.
