La Costa del Azahar, la plus septentrionale des provinces de la communauté de Valence, est le nom touristique donné à la côte espagnole sur la Méditerranée, située dans la Province de Castellón; elle est constituée par quelques 120 km de plages et criques.
Le nom vient de Azahar : la fleur d'oranger.
Le climat méditerranéen y est doux toute l'année.
La frange littoral de cette province offre au visiteur le spectacle d'un immense tapis vert tressé par des cultures d'orangers.
