El Verger (in Spanish officially El Vergel and Valenciano  El Verger) is a town of 4.839 inhabitants situated 3 kilometres from the Mediterranean Sea and 8 kilometres from Denia.

The main attractions are the Main Street, two medieval towers, a neoclassical church and a safari park. The town's crest, recently resuscitated, pays homage to its name: it displays two trees and four flowers.

The municipal boundaries confront those of Beniarbeig, Benimeli, Murla, Denia, Ondara and Els Poblets.

The town is 91km from both Alicante and Valencia, and constitutes part of the frontier between the Province of Alicante and that of Valencia.

The Mediterranean  sea is 3 kilometres to the northeast. The town is split in two by the River Girona, which flooded catastrophically in 2007, destroying many houses and taking a life.

The largest part of El Verger is to be found on the western side of the river, and three bridges provide access to the other side and to the sea beyond.

Behind El Verger lies the Segaria mountain range, a place popular for hiking and which gives the local school its name. A grand part of the surrounding lands is dedicated to agriculture, specifically vegetables and citris.
