Orba is a village located in the deep interior of the Marina Alta, proud of its Moorish past, after Its Moorish origin may be perceived - even today - through their craft Cantarero, or analyzing the structure of the sour-Moorish town. Although its origin may well be a prehistoric Iberian settlement, UR-Obia where water flows from the bottom of the mountain, its history can be linked with another village of Berber origin, the group of Masmuda - a tribe of AURABA, North Africa - who settled in these lands after the Arab invasion.
 
Overview of the town
Thriving inland town with all the hustle and bustle you would expect from a traditional Spanish town. Very pretty buildings, the town hall is situated next to the cultural centre, the church in the heart of the town Plaza D’Espanga and surrounded by coffer shops and bars. 
Supermarkets, bars and plenty of restaurants and in the summer months the community swimming pool is crystal clear. When I say the community swimming pool it is a real family day out with a local restaurant and bar. Shaded seating areas for those who do not wish to be in full sun. The sports ground has tennis courts, paddle courts and even a rock face for climbing enthusiasts.
