The Cabanyal neighbourhood, along with Grao, Nazareth and Malvarrosa, constitute the eastern boundary of Valencia with the Mediterranean Sea. Its proper location in the area led to its morpho-typological development and unique landscape, giving an additional condition as a urban waterfront. The district sets up an urban piece with specific qualities different from the rest of the city, these are: the bioclimatic characteristics, traditional culture, socio-economic performance and natural resources such sun, sea and winds. In the present study has been analyzed in depth the bioclimatic conditions of urban environment. For this purpose has been used Givoni’s Bioclimatic Chart to determine which passive strategies are suitable. The analysis shows excellent conditions set in its response to climate.
