Fundamentally agriculture and lately offering services in interior and rural tourism

Sella is an agricultural town which has suffered from the urban and touristic development on the coast.  This typical town is nearly hanging on a hill, between the gulllies of l’Arc and Tagarina, with steep and narrow streets sue due its situation in the skirts of the Sierra Aitana, and crowned by the Hermitage of Santa Barbara.  The town culminates in what was the ancient castle of the village. It is a place that offers rural hostels.
