Safor, Administrative division in Valencia Province, Spain
Safor is an administrative region in Valencia Province covering 429 square kilometers and comprising 31 municipalities, with Gandia as its capital. The area stretches from Mediterranean coasts to inland zones, combining beaches with agricultural areas.
The region was reorganized in 1987 as an official administrative unit under the Generalitat Valenciana guidelines. This reorganization established the foundation for its present-day structure.
People here speak Valencian as their main language and keep local customs alive through regular festivals in their towns. These traditions shape daily life and appear in celebrations throughout the year.
The region has a Mediterranean climate with mild winters and hot summers, and coastal temperatures range between 18 and 20 degrees Celsius (64-68 Fahrenheit). The flat coastal terrain makes it easy to travel between beach areas and inland zones.
The area contains the Circ de la Safor mountain formation and is known for citrus fruit cultivation in its inland areas. This agricultural tradition shapes much of the landscape and local economy.
