Levante had to wait until the 1960s to make their La Liga debut. In 1963, the club finished runner-up in Group 2 of the second division, beating Deportivo de La Coruña 4–2 on aggregate in the promotion play-offs. During the first top flight season, it managed to win both games against Valencia, managing a 5–1 home win against Barcelona in the 1964–65 campaign, but being relegated nonetheless, after losing in the playoffs against CD Málaga, and spent most of the following two decades in the second and third divisions -
Segunda División B would not be created until 1977.
