Best Easter Activities for the Whole Family
Before you know it, Easter holidays and the good weather on the Mediterranean coast will be here. If you’re planning to visit Valencia this Easter, here are the top things to do during Semana Santa 2025:
Valencia’s Most Seafaring Holy Week
During Easter, Valencia invites you to experience its maritime neighborhood processions—an event declared of National Tourist Interest, rich in history and tradition just steps from the beach. The old fishing districts of El Grau, El Cabanyal, and Canyamelar commemorate the passion, death, and resurrection of Christ.
Its origins date back to the 15th century, tied to the customs of ancient fishermen, making it one of Spain’s most original and authentic Holy Week celebrations—second only in importance within the city of Valencia. Enjoy sunny days with temperatures up to 24°C during your trip, savor traditional rice dishes by the Mediterranean, and sip authentic horchata in the city center or at the beach.
Sunset at Albufera
This Instagram-worthy plan is a must for your Valencia itinerary. Just a few kilometers from the city lies one of Spain’s most beautiful natural landscapes: the Albufera Natural Park. Relax, grab your camera, and enjoy the rice fields, lush vegetation, wildlife, and of course, one of the best sunsets in Valencia.
Make the most of your visit with a meal at one of the area’s traditional restaurants. Nearby is the El Saler route—a pristine beach and kilometers of trails through pine forests. Immerse yourself in nature without straying far from the city.
A Family Hiking Day
Valencia offers more than just beaches. You can also enjoy hiking trails through the nearby mountains. El Garbí, for instance, is only about 30 minutes from the city. It’s located in the Sierra Calderona Natural Park and offers stunning views. It’s one of the most classic Easter activities for a family day trip.
Taste Traditional Valencian Cuisine
Holidays are made for breaking routines and indulging a little. For food lovers, the Valencian Community is a true paradise. During Easter, you’ll get to try seasonal specialties. In addition to the famous Valencian paella, don’t miss the most traditional Easter dessert: la mona de Pascua—a sweet brioche-like pastry topped with a boiled egg. And of course, longaniza de Pascua, a traditional pork sausage often enjoyed with this treat.
