The Valencia littoral


Explanation:
"Littoral" is a perfectly acceptable word in English. The following definition is from Word Reference, but any good monolingual Eglish dictionary will give it.

littoral [ltrl]
adj.
1. of or relating to the shore of a sea, lake, or ocean.
2. Biology. inhabiting the shore of a sea or lake or the shallow waters near the shore: littoral fauna.
n.
3. a coastal or shore region.
[from Late Latin littoralis, from litoralis, from litus shore]
