The Lake of Anna, also known as the Albufera de Anna, is one of those corners that feels like it belongs to another place and time. Its turquoise waters, fed by underground springs, stay fresh and clear all year round, framed by willows and poplars that cast their reflections across the surface. Just a short walk from the village of Anna, in the Canal de Navarrés region, it shows up in a lot of local photos.

The lake invites you to slow down. You can take a gentle stroll along its banks in the shade of the trees, find a good spot for a swim in its clear waters, or rent a rowing boat and glide across the surface. It's a good spot for kids and a fine starting point for the other water spots nearby.
