Cap de la Nau, Cabo de la Nao in Spanish literally Cape of the Ship, is a headland located in the town of Javea, Spain, in the Mediterranean province of Alicante, being the most eastern point of the Land of Valencia. It is rocky, steep and mostly composed of limestone. It marks the southern limit of the Bay of Valencia.
In its extreme, that points to the island of Formentera (Balearic Islands), a lighthouse is located 120 meters over the sea level, in the top of a cliff, performing an important help to navigation. Underneath the headland there is a big cave, known as Cova dels Orgues (or Cueva de los Órganos in Sp.) that can only be approached from the sea.
