Just an hour away you find this beautiful natural river. The waters stay a consistent 77 degrees throughout the year. In the summer it feels cool and refreshing. In the winter it feels like a hot tub, although you will only find the tourists enjoying these waters in the winter months. Parking is severely limited here, so if you are making the journey in a rental car be prepared to park in town and make the walk.

Really nice, relaxing experience. Clear and chill water, rich in magnesium. There is a restaurant as well. There are free changinging cabins and toilets. Dogs are not allowed to the beach, bathing them is explecitly forbidden as well. There are some, but limited parking spot right at the entrance. Parking is not free.

Montanejos Baths Review I recently visited the Montanejos hot springs in Spain, and what a disappointment it turned out to be. Five years ago, this was a perfect, serene spot with crystal-clear river water and free access that made it a hidden gem. Now, it's become a cash grab with declining quality. The river water was shockingly white and murky, as if contaminated with floating debris—unusual for a flowing river that should be pristine. I attached pictures to show just how dirty it looked; it's not the inviting blue we expect. Worse are the escalating costs. They've blocked all free roadside parking with pillars, forcing you into their paid lot at €1 per 30 minutes—€8 for just 4 hours! Then, add €4.50 entrance per person. For what? Neglected facilities and polluted water? Spain seems to be turning into a place where you pay stupid prices for basics, and the money goes nowhere. It's worsened every year since my last visit. Not worth the trip anymore—skip it and find a better free alternative. 1/5 stars.

I saw videos and photos of this place for months and I’m happy to say it DID NOT disappoint. So relaxing, wonderful water, a lot of beautiful dragonflies around the water, we had a great time. Paid Parking!!

We have mixed feelings 😂 We walked away saying we were happy we stopped because we like to see different places, but we were also happy we didn’t make a special trip to the area just to visit it because it definitely would’ve been more disappointing if that were the case. It is definitely beautiful and an experience to swim in the river. Water isn’t warm, that’s for sure. Now that it’s popular on the internet it’s full of people. €4,50 per adult and €3,50 per kid to enter (9:00-19:00)—I recommend parking not at this parking lot but further on and across a little bridge—this parking fills up fast and the other one is empty and has a beautiful walk through the valley. Parking is €1 per 30 minutes, 10€ for a full day.

Absolutely loved this, great for hiking, look for the Black caves, the thermal pools are so nice, the water towards the cave are cooler but the other side the water is warmer, a must see.

Fuente de los Baños is a stunning natural gem! The serene river, surrounded by lush greenery and dramatic cliffs, creates a breathtaking backdrop. The area appears well-maintained, with facilities like restrooms, making it a convenient spot for visitors. The variety of weather conditions captured in the photos—rainy and sunny—highlights its year-round beauty. Perfect for a peaceful getaway or a family adventure! PROTIP 1: YOU MUST PAY FOR PARKING, or you will receive a citation. I was 44€, no one told me anything about parking, as I mistakenly assumed parking was included in the park fee: 4.50€/adult, 3.50€ for children. PROTIP 2: there are life guards on duty who will enforce any rules you see at the kiosk where you pay. The rules only seem to apply between the yellow posts near a small bridge on the right and the yellow buoys on the left toward the canyon wall.

Fantastic place to visit, brilliant variety of murals and real skill on show. Shame the town doesn’t have a Moho parking spot as we’d have stayed overnight and eaten/drink in the town. There’s plenty of spaces they could set one up! The museo is great, get a map and explore!

Village in the middle of Castellon called Fanzara with lots and lots of murals painted on the walls. Only 300 people live here. Worth a visit.

Fantastic use of urban art, in an isolated village in the Sierra De Espadan. Completely free to visit and open all year round, MIAU, its shop/museum and the annual festival are all run by volunteers who live in the town. They never intended it to become what it has... MIAU was a unifying idea which became a solution to the sociocultural split that opened up in the town some eight years ago, over a proposed toxic waste plant which in the end was cancelled but the social scars remained. While you are up there, combine the visit with a hike around the gorgeous scenery around the sierras, followed by lunch and a cold beer in the Bar D'Abajo.

Very interesting walk and great artworks on houses

The murals in this town were a delight to view. We went on a Monday and it was very quiet. It looks like things change somewhat frequently. I wish there was more of a restaurant in town to round out our visit. But we did stop for a cortado. Definitely stop for a visit!

Great artistic works all over the town.

A very interesting place I ran into while driving around the mountains. Really neat artwork and I got lucky and saw a precession in the town this museum is located.

Ohhh

Wow

Booked online and had a great time! Free parking available, and some are even covered. There are some bathrooms right next to the parking lot. On the way to the cove entrance, you’ll pass many stores, restaurants, snacks, so plenty of options to eat/shop. The tour itself was about 50 minutes. First part is a short boat ride for about 10-15 minutes, then you get off and walk a bit thru the cave for another 10-15 minutes, and then get on the same boat for the last part back. You can only take photos/videos towards the end, for about 5-10 minutes. The guide who is rowing the boat will let you know when you can use your phones. Water is mostly clear and shallow (1-2 meters deep). There are a few sections where the water goes deeper (around 11 meters) but the boat doesn’t pass on top of it. You do share the boat with other random people. Overall it was fun but mostly relaxing and uneventful. Wouldn’t do it a second time!

Well managed site and surrounding, a very unique experience. There are multiple restautants and gift shops around as well. Tickets can be purchased on site, tours start frequently, there are a lot of guides. The water inside the cave was very clear, the tour starts off with a 5-10 minute boat ride in the caves, continues with 10 minute walk, and ends with another boat ride. The boats had one tour guide each, and could fit about 10-14 people. The guide was in the back and pushed the boat forward like a Gondola, with a long wood. The only downside was that the guide spoke very little English. There is plenty of free parking outside.

This was so much fun! You are allowed to take pictures but only when permitted at one point in the boat trip. I would've liked to spend more time in the boat just checking out the caves but you are moved through the cave waters by a guide. In an area filled with ancient ruins and such old history, it's crazy to think they just found these caves in the middle of the 20th century. They were truly explored only in the 1960s. They still don't know how big it is, where it starts, and where it ends. Worth the hour's trip from Valencia to visit.

We went with Valencia&Go and the experience was smooth and amazing. The boat guide was a character! Overall it was super fun, very little waiting times and the area surrounding it is also very pretty. I warmly recommend to go

The Caves of Saint Josep, I came here with a large group from our cruise ship for the day, we had a timed entry into the San Jose Caves. Each boat holds about 12 people and we went slowly through the water while the guide pointed out various formations. There was a short walkway too, in the middle of the tour. This is said to be "Europe's longest navigable underground river", which is the unique reason I took the tour! It was quite enjoyable and I can recommend it.

I came to #SanJoséCave because I was curious about the cave experience—those online videos looked super eye-catching, and hey, I’d never done it before. Figured it was time to tick it off the list. After a long bus ride, here’s how it went: 1️⃣ Not as stunning as expected—colors were pretty dull 2️⃣ Most of the tour felt rushed and not very photo-worthy 3️⃣ The journey was long and repetitive… got a bit boring 🥱 4️⃣ Some fellow boat passengers were seriously rude—taking sneaky photos and spinning around nonstop 🤬 5️⃣ Ticket price wasn’t cheap 🤑 6️⃣ Very few food options nearby ❌🥣 7️⃣ Tried to sit in their restaurant with my own snacks and got told off (even though the place was empty—guess we all know why the flies were the only customers 🪰) Bottom line: There are plenty of other places around the world with way better value for your time and money 🌍📈

A magical experience! The underground river and boat ride are incredible, and the cave formations are breathtaking. Definitely worth visiting! 🚤✨

While it’s a bit of an uphill hike, it is well worth it to get to the top and enjoy the magnificent 360-degree view of the town below. We stopped by the main visitor centre and were greeted by the staff who explained the site’s long history and the best routes to follow to explore the property.

This is actually two castles on the two peaks of the spur with 2km of walls linking them. They have evolved from Iberian, through Roman and Islamic fortifications and then further improvements in each century, culminating in machine gun bunkers being built in the Spanish Civil War in 1936. We saw the Jewish necropolis, built into the hillside as we climbed and then entered through the gates into the castle itself to find that it was actually closed and only the information centre was open. This was free and was very good, we probably spent 30 minutes learning about the history of the site and its occupants as well as watching an English language film. I have no idea when the castle itself will reopen and can't see any definite information online.

Woah. Another epic place, beautiful view of the green surroundings and towns from the top. Visitor centre with toilets at location, good history. Wear sturdy shoes tho for some gravel paths

How do you even rate a castle? It was awesome. There are so many areas to check out and hike around. Very cool to see parts of a structure so old that it's basically random sized rocks cemented together.

The castle was impressive! The views were breathtaking, parts of the castle were very well preserved/restored, and it's amazing to think how much history has happened here. The guy at the entrance was very knowledgeable about the history of the castle and he can tell you the history in English as well. I really recommend a visit. It was quite near the train station and it was free to enter.

Ancient ruins with an interesting history. The restoration is not very good, but there is something to see. You have to be prepared to walk a lot

Nice place to visit with family. Free entrance. Easy to get there. There is nothing extraordinary about architecture but still very nice place to walk and see beautiful view from the top.

3 euro entrance to the cathedral tower. Quite crowded the rooftop and there are plenty of stairs to climb, beautiful view on the city and a good coordination with traffic lights for climbing and descending. I got scared when the bell started to bang, cool to see it functioning, though.

The tower of the Valencia Cathedral is visited separately and for the ticket you need cash. The entrance is 2.5€. Also opens earlier than the cathedral. We visited at 8 AM. If you are not used with effort will be a real challenge - 207 steps. The last part of the climbing is tighter and steps are smaller. You have a traffic light at the top so you won’t go down while others go up on that portion. The view is amazing.

Thought I was fit, but that was a challenging walk up just over 200 steps. And they're big steps too. Great views from up top though. €2.50 cash only

Take note of the operating hours. We didn’t get to visit this tower since we spent a little too much time in the Cathedral. But from the outside, it really look beautiful

The church tower can be visited for €3. You can stay up in the tower for 20 minutes.

It's worth the steep admission price. The church is beautiful and unusual and the included exhibit is well done.

The Central Market is nice, but nothing really special. The Lonja de la Seda is a beautifully decorated building.

Breathtaking. That’s the word that lingers after stepping out of Valencia’s Cathedral. Few temples manage to balance grandeur, mystery, and lived history the way this one does. From the moment a visitor crosses its threshold, the space feels alive with centuries of devotion, civic pride, and Mediterranean light. Its architecture is a palimpsest of Valencia itself: Romanesque bones, Gothic ambition, Renaissance discipline, Baroque flourish—each layer revealing a chapter of the city’s identity. The soaring vaults lift the gaze almost instinctively, while the side chapels, rich but never overwhelming, draw you into quieter stories of art, faith, and patronage. And then there’s the Holy Chalice chapel, a place where symbolism and narrative converge so powerfully that even the skeptical pause. Climbing the Miguelete tower rewards anyone willing to take on the spiral steps: the view is a gift—Valencia unfolding in every direction, its rooftops, plazas, and coastline stitched together by sunlight. In all, this cathedral isn’t just beautiful; it’s meaningful. It’s one of the most remarkable cathedrals a traveler can encounter, a space that manages to be both monumental and deeply human.

Great touristic attraction, well organized by self touring headsets, no need to join groups or guides. Prices are very reasonable and they have offers for families. The facility is accessible for wheelchairs including the museum inside the cathedral.

Both a house of God and a home to some of the finest religious art in the world. I'd recommend getting the audio guide tour, which was both informative and very easy to follow. I am now convinced that the Holy Grail is indeed real, and located in Valencia Cathedral. Definitely take the extra trip up the tower (accessible after you exit) for amazing views over the city.

What a magnificent cathedral! Even from the outside, it makes a phenomenal impression. Think it's just the facade? Try walking around it; it looks like the cathedral encompasses half the city. A huge, magnificent building, so beautiful inside that it takes your breath away. The entire interior is simple, and the altar is fantastically rich. An undeniable highlight is the audio guide, which is free with the Valencia card. Inside the cathedral is the entrance to the museum, which is multi-story, grand, and contains numerous artifacts, especially the Holy Grail.

🏆⛪ A Cathedral with a Real Treasure ​ The Cathedral is a history book written in stone. Although the current structure was built after the Christian Reconquista, underground you will find traces of great civilizations: fragments of an old Roman wall and relics of the Moorish era (the cathedral stands directly on the foundations of a former mosque). ​This monumental building, expanded over centuries, hides something even more valuable than architecture. The side chapel houses what is most likely "the" Holy Grail. Its history is like a movie script: sent across the Mediterranean to Spain for protection against the Romans, hidden from the Moors by monks in a mountain monastery, it finally ended up with the King of Aragon. And how did it get here? King Alfonso V pledged it as collateral for a huge loan... which he never repaid! So, the Cathedral seized the collateral. And that is how a story of a bad debt gave us access to one of Christianity's greatest relics right here in this cathedral. 🤯 ​Practical tips: 👁️ Views: Entrance to the "El Miguelete" tower is paid separately, but if you don't mind climbing 207 stairs, the panoramic view is a must. ​🗺️ OUR COSTA BLANCA TREASURE LIST: This cathedral was the crown jewel of our trip. If you are planning to visit the region, here is the list of places we visited and reviewed (look for my reviews on the map!): ​🏰 Guadalest: Castle in the rock & azure lake. ​💦 Algar Waterfalls: Refreshing nature. ​🏘️ Costa Blanca Trio: Colorful Villajoyosa, white Altea & Benidorm skyscrapers. ​🥘 Valencia: Oceanogràfic & the atmospheric Old Town. ​🎯 ADDITIONAL RECOMMENDED ACTIVITIES: ​🐎 Horse Riding: An amazing ride on the dunes with Jess Pony Express in Guardamar (great for advanced riders too!). ​🏎️ Quads: Adrenaline at the lake with Costa Blanca Quad Tours.

Beautiful 2025 Jubilee Cathedral. I love going Holy Mass here every time I visit Valencia. The cathedral has impressive architecture and beautiful works of art. It is breathtaking and not to mention the Holy Chalice Chapel (which I have seen in previous visits). Holy Mass, celebrated by the bishop, was amazing and there were so many people attending from different parts of the world. This Sunday The Holy Chalice Chapel was not open for visitors and the small shop was shut also. However, there was access to the Cathedral Tower, from where you can have a panoramic view of Valencia. A wonderful sacred place to visit with so much beautiful art.

Beautiful architecture, big museum inside. I wish it was written more info in english. I don't understand why you let people beg at the door of the cathedral, it's not nice for anyone! We couldn't get tickets online, there was a big queue at the entrance.

malvarrosa Beach is wide, clean, and great for a relaxing day by the sea. I rented 2 sunbeds and a parasol for €30 on the right side near the beach bar service was quick and friendly. The sand is soft, and the water is usually calm, perfect for swimming. Security is visible with Red Cross staff and Guardia police patrolling on quads, which makes the beach feel very safe. Tip: go early in the morning to avoid the midday rush

Beautiful city beach with sand and without any shade unless you get an umbrella. Very spacious so even when there is a lot of people it doesn't feel overcrowded. There are bars and restaurants every few meters on a promenade next to the beach

Sand beach in Valencia, easy to catch with public transport or bycicles, excellent choice to spend afternoon with friends, with drinks and food, your own or taken nearby. Enough place for everybody.

Wide and beautiful beach, drinking water, water to rinse after walking in the sand, bus near the cliff, fine sand (with some dirt unfortunately), little playgrounds for kids.

To rent a chair for a day costs 6€, sunchair 9€, umbrella 9€. Nice sandy beach. No changing rooms.

I would say one of the best beaches I’ve been to in a long time. The sand is so thin but soft. They have showers outdoors and fountains to wash your feet in. You can rent an umbrella and some beach chairs and enjoy your day here. You can walk up and down the beach and enjoy the views and collecting seashells. Overall, if you happen to be in Valencia, I would highly recommend a stop here.

Super nice and clean beach and easy to reach with public transportation

The architecture is amazing and is covered in nature. You can even see and hear parrots in the trees and it's beautiful. It's a brilliant place to walk around and explore but one thing which wasn't the best was the cost to go inside. I read other reviews and some people said how it isn't worth paying the money to go inside and I can agree with them. If you want to, your more than welcome to pay the money to go inside but I wouldn't. Overall, amazing place to go and there's a bus which goes right up to the museum which was very helpful.

We visited the Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias in Valencia today (October), and it was a wonderful experience even without going inside the buildings. The weather was perfect, sunny but not too hot, and there were fewer people around, which made it peaceful to stroll through and take photos. The modern architecture is stunning, and the reflections on the water create a beautiful, almost futuristic atmosphere. Definitely worth visiting, even just to enjoy the walk and the views.

We were there on a Saturday night. It was very nice to walk around. The architecture was fascinating and the vibe was just very good. A nice place to stroll around and it was super easy to get there from the city center. And don’t forget to check out the whisper chamber! It was very cool!!!

The City of Arts and Sciences is a futuristic destination in Valencia, well worth a visit. It's a large area encompassing many buildings, of which the oceanarium is, in my opinion, the most beautiful and highly recommended. Even without tickets, it's still worth seeing the buildings from the outside, although you should be careful with the sun as the main promenades are uncovered. However, there's a garden and a park along the entire length, so I recommend exploring those paths.

A spectacular place where science comes to life through interactive experiences, and architecture itself becomes art. The building is stunning — futuristic, full of light, and truly one of Valencia’s modern landmarks. Exhibits are well organized and engaging for all ages, from hands-on experiments to immersive multimedia displays. A space that inspires curiosity and reminds you how beautiful knowledge can be.

Beautiful architecture and a great place to go for a stroll at any time of day. Very nice and colourful at night. Also lots of exhibits museums and Europe’s largest aquarium.

We did the whole Combination, Museum, Cinema and the Oceanographic Park! Booked a combined ticket in advance which I would recommend! The Museum is a must for every person that’s interested in science/ the human body! We are two medstudents and we loved it but it’s definitely something children would love as well! The Movie is just an experience for the eyes, the big round screen is unique and therefore very interesting! The Seaanimals are very nice to watch. However, might be the case that they have multiple certifications but to have beluga whales in an Aquarium and Dolphines for a show, even if it isn’t as disciplined as some other shows, isn’t really acceptable. We on purpose didn’t go to the show and we read afterwards some articles which stated the show is very dolphins friendly and the circumstances are far from shows at Seaworld etc. but we heard the crowd from far and Dolphines are very intelligent and sensitive animals which is why that’s not acceptable. Just because they don’t treat the Dolphines as cruel as others, doesn’t mean it’s not cruel. And to keep them and even bigger animals, belugas, in a tank of water when normally they would wander thousands of miles in the ocean just makes me very sad. And I am aware, that they also support the ecosystem sea in a way but I would like to see at least no Dolphines and Whales in Tanks way to small for their needs. We won’t be coming back, I wouldn’t necessarily recommend anyone going there. The only case I would go back is probably with kids, for educational purposes. However, still 3 Stars for the Cinema and the Museum.

Nice place, huge effort from the team. Great selection of animals etc. Awesome aquariums. The one from Tenerife is the leader, in my opinion. The food inside quality should be improved. The value for money is disappointing. Dishes hot in the exterior and almost frozen in the middle. The security staff should help the clients; in our case, they had long personal discussions, ignoring the visitors.

It was worth it. Truly amazing! Impressive building with aquarium and dolphin show. You should be here! I received support and guidance when I needed. If You wish to see dolphin show please make sure that you arrive 10 minutes earlier and take a seat because workers try to ensure health and safety for everyone. If you decide to eat dinner here then it's expensive and less choices. Public toilets are available here.

The L'Oceanogràfic is one of Valencia's biggest attractions, a true showcase. The ticket price seemed high for our budget, but after entering and seeing these wonders, I realized it was a bargain. The animals look well-cared for and have plenty of space. The dolphin arena is a real gem. I felt the dolphins were happy; you could see their bond with their trainers, and the instructor focused on educating people about these magnificent animals and their health. Initially, I thought the area was small and would be a quick tour, but it turned out that the coolest aquariums and trails are underground, pleasantly cool (good for hot weather). It was amazing to see the belugas and underwater passages with sharks and other creatures overhead, within arm's reach. I felt the magic of this place the entire time, like a child. The photos capture it perfectly! You can buy a combined ticket to the facilities in the city of science, but THIS is a gem and I recommend it wholeheartedly.

I liked the marine animals, beautiful buildings with modern architecture. Arrows on the floor were useful to help you follow a predefined route, to easily go through all the dark rooms with aquariums. I liked the call for everyone to get involved and make changes for a better planet. The dolphin show was a bit boring, a few jumps, swimming with 2 employees and that's it. I've seen better shows at dolphinariums. If you want a good seat go there with many minutes before the show.

This place was awesome. Lots of fish. We even saw whales a crocodile penguins. Jellyfish and lots of other animals and exciting things to see. I would definitely go again as you couldn’t see from the photos there is a lot to see and a lot to do it does cost. It cost us €38 per person. I don’t know what that will be for people looking at this in a few years time. But you can spend three or four hours in there easy And if you come with children, there is plenty of things for them to jump a boat undo ice cream shops. There’s a restaurant in there. There is play areas for kids as well.

Went with the vision this would probably rate as a childrens zoo. Not at all it was amazing. Such a different perspective of the sea creatures which interacted with you as you passed along underwater tunnels. Clean, good food, exceptional staff and most of all the most hilarious penguins I've ever met. Prepare to be intrigued, delighted and entertained.

I recently visited Oceanogràfic in Valencia, and it was an amazing experience that I would highly recommend to anyone visiting the area. The aquarium is beautifully designed, easy to explore, and filled with an impressive variety of marine life from all around the world. Out of all the exhibits, the dolphins and sea lions were definitely the highlights of my visit. Watching the dolphins was truly unforgettable — they were energetic, playful, and clearly well-cared for, and their interactions with the trainers made the experience both educational and entertaining. The sea lions were equally captivating, with their curious personalities and lively behaviour. I could have spent hours watching them glide through the water and interact with each other. The whole place feels very immersive, and the layout allows you to get close to the animals without feeling crowded or rushed. The staff were friendly and helpful, and everything was well-maintained and clean, from the walkways to the viewing areas. Whether you’re visiting as a family, a couple, or even on your own, there’s plenty to enjoy and learn. Overall, Oceanogràfic offers a wonderful mix of entertainment and education, and I would definitely recommend it to others looking for a memorable day out.

Castell de Cullera is a great place to visit, both for its history and for the amazing views of the city and the sea. Driving up, you’ll already find some nice spots to stop for photos, and at the top you get a full 360° panoramic view. Parking is limited, so it can take some time to find a spot. There are public restrooms available for free, which is very convenient. Once you park, you’ll see the option to take a small elevator for €1. Honestly, unless you have accessibility needs, it’s not worth it—the elevator only covers a very short section of stairs, which you can walk in 3–4 minutes without any problem. Even if you don’t go inside the castle or arrive after closing time, it’s still worth going up for the views and to enjoy the surroundings. The walk and scenery make it a very rewarding stop in Cullera.

Amazing views of the local city and landscape, the castle is only small but very beautiful and well worth a visit to learn about its history and to take in its architecture. It’s very impressive at the building work to get it there and how formidable it would have been in its day. If you like history, views and architecture then you should absolutely go and visit Parking was fine and there were public WC. Unfortunately the church which is attached was not open on the day we went (Monday) so didn’t get to see inside which is a shame, the cafe also was not open. There is a weird tiny funicular rail which cost €1 PP you definitely don’t need it but the kids enjoyed it

Lovely place with an exceptional view and a good bit of history. Towering above the town of Cullera, this little castle provides incredible views of the area. It's not very big as it used to be a military fort rather than a typical castle. There's also a nearby hiking trail going around the mountain. While there is some information in English, the inside of the castle itself gives information almost exclusively in Valencian and Spanish, though for those interested it's relatively easy to just translate it.

We were able to grab the last parking space at the top of the hill and luckily there was a mini funicular to take Deb the final distance to the castle entrance. Admission was €3 but it is a small castle so we probably spent less than 30 minutes inside, including watching the 12 minute information film (English subtitles). The interior was unadorned and the battlements were small but with nice views of the coast and the rice fields. We had an ice cream and a coffee at the cafe terrace and then I walked down the steps to view the castle from below and then down a small path to view the octagonal tower and segments of the town wall, built during the Islamic period. The castle itself has an Islamic base and was then updated and expanded after the Christian reconquest in the 13th century. It's next expansion was in the 16th century after Muslim pirates sacked the town and carried the population off into slavery.

Nice place, quiet in october. Easy to park a car, very good view to the coastline.

I only explored the castle from the outside, but even from there, the views over Cullera were absolutely breathtaking. The landscape alone makes the visit worthwhile.

Gorgeous panoramic views from the top, overlooking the town of Cullera and the bay. Sadly it was closed by the time we got there, but we were still able to walk the grounds, which is a lovely walk with some hiking areas if desired. Beautiful grounds with great views and worth the small walk around to see the different viewpoints. Wish we could have seen the beauty and history inside, but still a 5 star experience just from the outside!

Amazing cave! Totally different from all caves that I've been in. It's breathtaking, worth of visiting.

A curious place, well worth a visit, even if you are not interested in special effects and superficial pirate stories. It's a huge, peculiarly winding natural cave, quite atmospheric, and with a bit of imagination you can almost "see" bad old pirates hiding there in the mid-sixteenth century. There are many old artefacts - sables, guns, jugs models of boats etc. I was given an individual tour by an earnest young guide, in English. Pity I wasn't allowed to take photos. There is also a café by the entrance, which is rather handy.

I love this place and have visited a few times - always travelling on the dotto train (tren turistico) from Cullera beach (get on near Ale Hop). They've created a great experience building on the history of the invasion of the town by pirates. Not for those with mobility problems, since as far as I know the out way out is via some very steep stairs.

Meh, not super interesting. Train ride was nice though.

Must-visit when in Cullera! We were pleasantly surprised about the guided tour included in the €5 entry fee, but would definitely recommend it! Nice bar too 🏴‍☠️

We went there in June 2019. 5 euros per adult and 3 for kids. Our 2 yo didn’t pay and we didn’t have to ask or show papers. We were lucky to be the only ones so we had the guide to ourselves. Visit was with a guide who did it in Spanish. He was nice but spoke a bit too quickly. The information in the cave is limited and the artefacts (swords and guns mostly) were alright but nothing impressive. We like the bergantine boat at the bottom. It was also nice to be away from the heat for 30-40 minutes. Kids enjoyed it but stairs can be steep.

Absolutely not what I was expecting on the websit it said the tour would be 45 mins. It was terrible we only got 5 mins!!! The girl tha was with us just stood there not even I sound came out of her mouth so I give this place 1 star!!

Historical palace, in the past times the heart beat of Gandia. Upon visiting you can use the audio guide offered when purchasing the tickets. I love all the little details in the ceiling paintings, the ceramic tiles and the Chapel. Them days people didn't skip on spending money on art, it's obvious. We enjoyed the visit very much.

The Ducal Palace of Gandia is a real gem! Quick tip: evening light photos are really fantastic as you can go to the terrace of the palace. It’s a beautifully preserved historic palace with impressive architecture and stunning interiors. The guided tours are informative and let you dive into the fascinating history of the Borgia family. A true must-see when visiting Gandia! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Wow this was an excellent and very interesting trip. The palace is wonderful and the use of their headphone is brilliant as it guides you through each room. Incredibly detailed and interesting look on this property its owners and history. The craftsman ship in the some of the room is exquisite especially the golden ball. If you in Gandia well worth a visit

We visited on a Saturday afternoon for the 5 pm tour. There were around 20 people on the Spanish tour. Very interesting and costing €8 per person. There are options to walk around with a recorded guide machine. We parked in the underground car park close by. The tour was up to one hour and a half.

I would live in this palace without a shadow of doubts 🤣 Enjoyed the exterior and interior of the palace. It was really surprising to look at the sizes of doors, beds, chairs. Humans were much lower than us.

Beautiful place!! The audio guide is worth it, makes everything very clear. The interior is stunning!! And we were able to park our bikes in the inner quad!!

Nica small palace. Detailed audio tour. Glitter and gold bit over the top. Very nice antique paintings and ornaments. You actually walk through the rooms and can literally touch almost every item exhibited (please do not!).

Good museum telling the history of Fallas. English translation. Only one other couple there. Allow about an hour, more if you want to read all the details!

Great place to visit to learnd the history. Guide was very helpful.

Amazing introduction to the tradition of Fallas! We took the self-guided audio tour. Very clear and detailed audio and written information on the exhibits and the history of Fallas. Free parking behind the museum, the ticket was €5 for adults, €4 for a child, well worth paying for! There is a cafe that serves food and drinks, and there are toilets as well.

Great spot to learn a little more about Las Fallas and its history in Gandia. The staff is friendly and our girls enjoyed learning more about the falleras and their dresses. The collection of the “pardoned” ninots is housed here with an audio guide that explains the history, building methods and traditions. It is a smaller museum focused on local fallas history that is a fairly quick and enjoyable visit.

Small museum dedicated to the "Fallas" in Gandia showing some of the figures saved at the end of the festival, the traditional costumes and the history including a digital recreation of the "mascletà" fireworks. The woman on the ticket desk also acted as a guide to some of the exhibits and couldn't have been more enthusiastic about something she clearly loves. Again, small, but definitely recommend.

I experienced the fallas in Gandia but am able to understand and appreciate it more after visiting this nice little museum. The person selling tickets spoke English and was very friendly.

A great way to learn the history of the Fallas

Good place to spend with family ! Very close to see the animals. Was amazing to stand near the giraffe which was fed and take the photos! Friendly staff!

I had a fantastic experience at this safari park. The staff are polite, friendly, and very professional. Everyone we interacted with spoke English, so if you don’t speak Spanish, you won’t have any problems. The park is home to a wide variety of animals, and you can see them from surprisingly close distances, which makes the whole visit really exciting. One important thing to know: the last chance to buy a ticket is at 4:00 PM, although the park itself remains open until 7:00 PM. Three hours is more than enough time to explore everything without feeling rushed. My personal recommendation is to arrive on a weekday just before the ticket office closes, around 3:40 PM. By that time the crowds have thinned out, so you won’t end up stuck in a line of cars, and you’ll still have plenty of time to enjoy the park. Also, don’t miss the drive on the final stretch before you arrive. The road winds through the mountains, and the scenery is absolutely stunning — it really adds to the experience.

I’m putting three stars as the personal was helpful and the safari ( first part of the experience) by itself is actually nice, animals enjoyed a lot of space and the local guide explained well. It just becomes sad when you see the Lion, wolves and tiger in relatively small cage. The highlight was to see a woman in a keffiyeh — symbol of anti-colonial struggle — sipping the view next to a Coca-Cola vending machine (aren’t they supposed to boycott that?). She’s taking photos of a meerkat in a cage while dressed in the attire of resistance. Paying for entry to a zoo, supporting capitalism, and snapping pictures of imprisoned animals… all while wearing a scarf that screams “freedom.” Modern activism looks a lot like selective outrage wrapped in tourist behavior. Hypocrisy, neatly packaged.

If you’re looking for a unique wildlife experience, this zoo is an absolute gem. Even getting there feels like part of the adventure. The drive winds through a stunning mountain landscape with breathtaking views around every other corner. Just be aware that parts of the road are quite narrow and twisty, so take it easy and enjoy the scenery. Once you arrive, the experience really kicks off. You use your own car for a guided tour through the park, stopping at each animal area while the guide shares interesting facts in both Spanish and English. The tour begins with curious ostriches and ends with the majestic lions, and in between you’ll meet zebras, camels, water buffalo, wolves, and even tigers. It’s incredible to see these animals up close in such a natural setting. After the driving tour, there’s a smaller zoo area where the “little guys” live. This part is perfect for stretching your legs and wandering around. Here you’ll meet everything from lemurs to giant tortoises, and don’t miss Eddie the Lama – he’s a total charmer and loves meeting visitors. To make it even more magical, peacocks roam freely everywhere you go. They’re so beautiful and add to the special atmosphere. What really stands out here is how well the animals are cared for. The whole park is dedicated to protecting endangered species and rescuing animals that haven’t had the best start in life. You can tell the staff are passionate about what they do, and it’s reassuring to see the animals living in spacious, clean environments. A little tip: bring plenty of water and wear comfortable shoes. There’s quite a bit of walking involved, and it can get very warm, especially in summer. This place is an unforgettable experience for animal lovers and families alike. The combination of amazing animals, stunning surroundings, and a genuine focus on conservation makes it something special. Highly recommended – this is the kind of place you’ll want to tell all your friends about afterwards.

We visit the Safari on Sunday it’s a long drive up to the mountains. Once you get there the drugstore will guide you to see all the animals. You can buy your tickets online or at the counter. The tour is for two hours

Love this place. Lots of interaction with the animals, friendly staff and nice cafe for after safari.

We took the guided tour and got a lot of info about the animals from the guide. The animals is in good condition but would like to see more greenery in the animals closure. The tour lasted over 2hrs so bring something to drink. We ate at the restaurant after and we recommend the cheese and bacon burger 👍 Nice staff.

Interesting information (mostly in Spanish) about the various stages of adaptation of the castle from its beginnings and most recently a palace. Worth a visit. Not much shade so morning or evening visit recommended. Plenty of (paid) parking in the vicinity. Good location for a walk around old town after. Plenty of exercise walking up and down the many steps and slopes to stretch those legs after a few days relaxing on the beaches.

Beautiful walk around the castle, lovely pit stop cafe and prices are great. Views are wonderful and well worth the few euros entry fee to explore the castle grounds. Coffee and cake are a must, visit is most definitely recommended, the surrounding streets with the quaint spainish houses are lovely to also explore.

Interesting place. €2 for seniors. There is a fairly steep tarmacced slope after the entrance, there are other routes up to the top, but steep and very uneven stone paths. Lots of boards with the history around. Lots of different areas to explore including the walls, so if you want to do it all, you'll need a lot of time.Views are good of the surrounding areas. Once outside, there is also a tunnel that runs underneath the castle which is free.

The views are absolutely stunning! There are very few people, so it’s really comfortable to walk around. There’s also a café on the grounds where you can enjoy different drinks with a beautiful view of the sea.

Definitely worth a visit, you will be sweating on a hot day, even if you take the easy road route up to the top. We opted for the hard more but scenic and cultural route making sure we took our time as it was 35deg. Entry is €3 for an adult and €2 for over 65's, the ticket man spoke perfect English and was very helpful. When you make it to the top the views are beautiful with harbour and coastal views. There is a small cafe at the top with a lovely seating area under pine trees, it does close mid afternoon so take a drinknifnyour going after 1400. We walked down the easy route and walked the castle tunnel that runs under the castle, this is free to enter. We parked down at the port car park, reasonably priced at around a €1 and hour and its only 10 mins from the castle.

A good uphill walk to a once thriving castle, little remains and all signs with history in Spanish, thankfully Google Translate helped tremendously. But you can see the history of the place it's mott and bailey,and footprints of the houses. Great views over Denia and harbour,watching the Ibiza ferry's come in. Lovely little cafe in castle at very reasonable price,also toilets,but these are a bit dilapidated.

This place is really nice high up some steep steps if willing to try or just do easy slope lol costs three euro nice restaurant at top also great views of everywhere see for miles

Decoration awasome. Low attractions density overall, only 5 per adults.looks that many attractions were closed. You can enter food and drinks, there is no control at entrance. The swimming pool is awesome, with bar and music. Don't forget your swimming suits. The best timing to go, around 16h. Enough time for the few attractions and swimming pool until 21h

A epic theme park loved it, very good value for money, plenty to do for adults and a good selection of rides for small kids. Quite a few shows, realt impressed with the cleanliness of the park, plenty of toilets and bins ( with ashtrays ) food selection is your typical stuff with beer as well. Good size car park with taxi rank only 15 euros to the beach in benidorm and hotels. Staff are polite and speak some english as well as spanish and other languages. PARK IS SET UP FOR DISABLED PERSONS AND BUGGIES IN MIND 😉

We visited Terra Mítica during Halloween 2025, and it turned out to be a fantastic place to enjoy with the kids. The rides are really well done—just note that most of the big ones require children to be over 1.4 meters tall. One of mine was a bit shorter and was a little disappointed she couldn’t go on everything, but that’s something to keep in mind. A fun tip: there are two water rides—one on a smaller setup and one on a big boat. We ended our day on the big boat ride and got absolutely soaked. The good news is I learned afterward that they have drying facilities on site—something I wish I’d known sooner! So you can dry off before heading out if you get drenched. All in all, Terra Mítica is a great spot for family fun, especially during the Halloween season. Just keep those height requirements and the handy drying stations in mind.

Such a disappointing review. Initially, I wanted this review to be 5* however there were some segments of my day that didn’t go particularly well to my desire. Why so? I waited for one of the rides: EL LABERINTO DEL MINOTAURO and we waited for 41 minutes in a hot room without any sprinklers present to cool you down. Additionally, once I got onto the ride, the laser things weren’t working properly even though I accurately aimed at the targets. You should honestly fix that ride. This ride is the chief reason why I rated this theme park 3*. However, there more positives than negatives… I really enjoyed the water rides: the rapids and that ride with the huge drop at the end and you get absolutely. But due to meteorological conditions. You will dry extremely fast within 15 minutes at least, fully. I also went on the orange swing ride (whatever it is called) which was so fun. Furthermore, prior to riding the orange swing ride, I went on the blue rollercoaster something associated with Titan theme (I think). That was highly fun and I do recommend it.

What a fun place, where you can soend the whole day. All the water rides are the best fun and on a hot day getting wet was great. The park itsellesi is a master piece and so clean aswell. All the sets and atmosphere, with different countries and eras. The shows are great with really talented actors, dancing, singing, stunts and the stage settings. The pirate show was amazing, loved it. All in all a great day. Yes it does take a lot of money to enjoy, since food and especially drinks are very expensive. But if you compare to theme parks around the world, entry fees are not as high for the quality of this theme park. It really is a place to see and experience. We will be back.

A great day out with loads to enjoy. Every time we have visited there are very few queues for the rides, great water play areas and amazing shows. We always try and visit once a year and haven't ever been disappointed!

It’s a great place to visit with your family when you're in Benidorm — huge, clean, and packed with fun games. If you purchase tickets online, you’ll receive a wristband, which lets you skip the queue by using the “entry for disabled” line. However, this wasn’t clearly explained, and it should definitely be made more obvious.

Enjoy stopping here on my runs , nice outdoor exercise area, super clean beach , one of my favourite places.

Beautiful beach, gold and soft sand, clear water. Great access and plenty of space for everyone. Good facilities and close to restaurants and bars. Fully recommend👌

I was there for new years celebration (2022/2023) so the season was quite lean, with only a few people. I found this place very relaxing. Amenities are appropriate, beach very clean and good eating places around.

Really great for disabled people access and kids. Really soft and clean sand and bits of shingle. Toilets and kids play area. Not many cheap touristy shops but plenty nearby if ur walking on the way down.

Benidorm is for British people so you feel at home there but you will notice a lot of local staff would rather look after there own

The beaches are absolutely spotless in benidorm...... I actually thought the sea looked better than Jamaica 🇯🇲

Lovely place but far to crowded with people couldn't move

Shops, walks,Bars,Restraunts, Beaches, fabulous Tapas wherever you go in Benidorm its clean well policed great public transport a credit to Mayor Tony Perez well done to all councillors of the municipality fabulous place caters for everyone. Deserves world heritage status.

Great place to visit in the winter. Cheap and cheerful. Very clean and tidy. Plenty of sunshine and a good range of hotels and restaurants and bars to fit all pockets.

Modern tram station,from Denia to Alicante,reliable service,you can buy a card of ten tickets which work out cheaper,also you can get the tram to Benidorm tram Station at the top off the old town and the bus station,all trams have their own ticket machines aswell,at last the trams are starting to be updated and the platforms are being modernised,

Small train station at the border of Benidorm. Around 20-25 minutes walk from the center. From here you will have to take the bus to Allicante since the railways are still under construction. The train ticket prices are low , 1,35 euro to Altea this is for a single ticket. Inside the new building there are two ticket machines that accept cash (coins,paper) debit cards and credit cards. There is also a small office with some service desks. There are two toilets cabins , 1 toilet seat for ladies and one toilet seat for the gentlemen plus a hanging urinoir. Plus running water to wash your hands. There are also some vending machines with beverages and candy / chips.

Very user friendly if you go to Alicante be very prepared to go over a very tall free standing bridge apart from that the route is a lovely trip and very inexpensive.

Modern tram station with connections to Alicante to the South and Denia to the North. Easy access and tickets can be bought from machine or ticket window. Ticket machines on trams too. English language used here. I like the crazy angles of the light strips in the entrance.

Benidorm has something for everyone, and is beautiful throughout the year.

(Translated by Google) I love the sandy promenade...we have a variety of places...good restaurants and the beach is beautiful....👌🌊🌴🌅👍 (Original) Me encanta el paseo del arenal ...tenemos variedad de sitios ...buenos restaurantes y la playa que es lindísima....👌🌊🌴🌅👍

(Translated by Google) Very good beach, with a nice promenade (Original) Muy buena playa, con un bonito paseo marítimo

(Translated by Google) The boy who serves Alberto is very friendly and always attentive. Excellent service and very good value for money. (Original) El chico que atiende Alberto es muy amable y siempre atento. Excelente servicio y muy buena relación calidad precio.

(Translated by Google) The only star is for the place: really very beautiful, very nice beach and crystal clear water. What is missing are the services: the beach was dirty due to a recent storm (we arrived at 2:00 pm), there are no public toilets or public showers. For such a renowned place we expected a very different level of service. (Original) L’unica stella è per il posto: davvero molto bello, spiaggia molto carina e acqua cristallina. Quello che manca sono i servizi: la spiaggia era sporca a causa di una recente mareggiata (siamo arrivati alle 14:00), non esistono bagni pubblici né docce pubbliche. Per un luogo tanto rinomato ci aspettavamo un livello di servizio ben diverso.

Old Town benidorm is a absolute gem , loads of shops bars and cafes it's more cultured than new benidorm and old town is more traditional, its definitely worth exploring plus there are two beaches a small cove beach and the large beach and the harbour

(Translated by Google) Good place to go on vacation. 5 minutes walk from the western and eastern beaches. The party area is very close too. It is also surrounded by central streets with a multitude of shops, bars, restaurants... (Original) Buen sitio para ir de vacaciones. A 5 minutos andando de las playas de poniente y de levante.

Levante beach was simply beautiful. It is well maintained, clean and safe. Sunbeds can be rented for only 6 euro for the day. Excellent place to relax.

Lovely beach but very busy. Chairs and umbrellas €6 each, you just sit down and someone comes round to pay. Close to shops you have people walking up and down selling cocktails and offering massages. A place with taps to wash the sand off your feet. A warning women do walk around and lounge top less if this offends anyone.

A great beach. However, it is rather populated with many tourists and locals making it rather busy. You can hire a sun-bed at only €12 overlooking the Mediterranean, turquoise, yet quite transparent sea. 🌊

I visited Platja de Llevant in Benidorm at the end of December, and the weather was surprisingly warm, not hot enough for a swim, but perfect to enjoy the sun and a long walk by the sea. The sky was clear, the water shimmered in deep blue tones, and the whole promenade was lively even in winter. Historically, Platja de Llevant has been one of the main symbols of Benidorm’s transformation. In the 1950s, this small fishing village began turning into one of Europe’s most famous seaside resorts, and this beach became the heart of that change, lined with hotels, cafés, and palm trees that still define the skyline today.

The beach is absolutely stunning, with its picturesque scenery that instantly captivates anyone who visits. The golden sand is soft and inviting, creating a perfect contrast against the deep blue sky. The ocean itself is crystal clear, reflecting the sunlight in shimmering patterns that dance across the water. The waves are gentle and soothing, making the beach a tranquil spot to relax and enjoy nature’s beauty. One of the highlights of this beach is the remarkably clean water. It’s so clear that you can see the seabed even from the shore, with fish occasionally visible as they swim by. The cleanliness of the water makes it perfect for swimming, wading, or just floating on the surface, letting the gentle waves carry you. In addition to the natural beauty, the beach offers convenient amenities like chair and sun umbrella rentals. This allows you to fully enjoy your time there without having to bring your own gear. You can easily rent a comfortable chair and a large umbrella to provide shade, making your day at the beach even more relaxing. Overall, the combination of breathtaking beauty and thoughtful conveniences makes this beach a perfect getaway.

Great Beach Fantastic beach very famous worldwide, the view on the buildings is incredible. Not the beach has all the expected amenities & lots of shops, cafes & restaurants around. The water is also really nice and this is what made this beach so fabulous.

My Days in Benidorm 🥰 🌸❣️ It was August, and Benidorm welcomed us with 41-degree weather 🥵. What wonderful days we had at the beach, strolling through its streets, trying out restaurants, watching the sunrise, or walking at night while enjoying the nightlife. We’d wake up early to enjoy the sea and walk along the sand. Each day was unique and amazing! Creating human connections, observing and learning about their lifestyle and culture made the experience even more enriching.

A brilliant day out for the whole family. We have two boys aged 6 and 7 and they both had an amazing time. We brought our own packed lunch after reading other reviews as the food in the park didn’t seem like the best option, and this turned out to be a smart decision as there are plenty of picnic areas available. We booked our tickets online which cost £109 for the four of us. On arrival, we rented a large locker for €10 (smaller ones are €7). They give you a PIN code printed on a receipt which is a bit odd, as it means you have to go into the water with a piece of paper to remember your code. It would make more sense if you could set your own code. We also paid for two sunbeds at €7 each and the inflatable ring floats came at an extra cost too. This felt like a bit of a rip off, as items like floats and sunbeds should really be included in the ticket price. This is the main reason we’ve given 4 stars instead of 5. That said, the park itself is spotless and very well maintained. The lifeguards, although quite young, did a fantastic job and we felt very safe letting the boys explore nearby. The children’s area is the best I’ve seen in any water park as it has a full section with obstacle courses, smaller slides and jumping platforms. We would definitely visit again for another family day out.

Great day out with the Grand kids here. Take your own drinks and food as the kiosk prices inside are a little hard on the wallet (€3.75) for a 1.5 ltr water that you can pick up for about 60 cents in the supermarket. €5.40 for a beer 🍺. Apart from that, it's a lovely park that kept the boys busy all day.

We visited on a Friday in August so was very busy as expected. However we found the park to be clean, well organised and we all had great fun, dragging the kids away after about 7 hours. Queues for some slides were 15-20 mins but plenty of shade and well mannered. Didn’t attempt to get a sun bed or picnic bench (which looked like you needed to be there early to get) - just sat on a towel on the grass which was fine. Lifeguards very professional and kept good order.

It was too crowded for me, even though we visited on a Wednesday. However, the kids had a lot of fun, which is the most important thing! We will come back! Food was available at affordable prices. What surprised me was that the lockers and lounges required payment.

Aqualandia in Benidorm is a great place and an absolute hit with kids—plenty of rides, pools, and attractions to keep the whole family entertained. The park is clean and well maintained, and overall it’s a fun experience for both children and adults. That said, the downside in high season is the waiting times. Some rides had queues of up to 90 minutes, which meant that even though we spent the whole day there, we couldn’t try everything we wanted. On-site food is also very expensive—for example, a gofre with just one scoop of ice cream was over €7. Security lockers cost €7, and hiring a large inflatable wheel is €8 plus a €2 deposit (though this does give you an advantage on Rapidos, where you can skip the queue). Overall, it’s still a great experience and the kids loved it, but the long waiting times and high prices take away from what could otherwise be a perfect day out.

Visited on: Friday, 29th August 2025 Such a great waterpark! The Rapids are especially good! I highly recommend. The “Black Hole” too is fun. ⚠️ SENSORY NEEDS: This ride is dark and may not be suitable for those with SN. For Food, I recommended the Snack Bar - see my other review for additional, and full details.

The place is big and theres plenty of rides and pools ! Very chill vibes although the food can always be better. Still a great time !

Amazing place. Definitely recommend to visit with children before 10-12 years. Beatiful shows. You can do pictures together with sea lion, dolphin, parrot, lemur. The park has beautiful territory and zoo. There are few restaurants on the park.

What a special place. So much fun! Negatives, its a little pricey, and they dont have a vast amount of animals. The pros, wow, the shows are phenomenal, especially the dolphin show. Amazing, just amazing. Yes its pricey, but honestly the shows itself make it worth it! Get over there. €20 cash or €17 (paid online) to touch a dolphin and have a photo (included) is such amazing value. You wont find better. So while its not a cheap day out, it's 100% worth it, and id go back again, and again.

Nice animal Park got discounted tickets so went with family. The dolphin and sea lion show were amazing definitely recommend going and seeing them. At the top. Is a great view of aqualandia which is right next door. Overall a good place to visit with family.

Pretty cool. We did combine tickets with Aqualandia. So we visited this place in the morning. We arrived about half past 10 which gave us time to look around and the watch the parrot show. Which was very informative. 2 of the parrots did not listen to the trainers and decided they were staying out just jumping on the rope. After that we headed to the sea lion show to watch some very happy sea lions and then the dolphin show, which has 8 dolphins doing tricks. The place is small so wouldn't recommend spending the whole day there as you can watch all the shows and see all the other animals in around 3 hours. Prices for photos with animals is around €20 euros I recommended paying for these before you enter the park.

In my opinion, Mundomar a bit too pricey, compared to Oceanografic in Valencia. However, dolphins did an amazing job performing, the instructors are great. Stunning view from the top! I liked it

It was a good day plenty to see and great shows.But don't bother with getting the VIP TOUR as you are unable to take Photos as they block you and say only me.The photographer was a bit rude and right in my face as I attempted to get a photo.

A great day was had by the whole family. The animals were amazing, well worth going to the shows, birds, sealion, and dolphin. There are other experiences which we didn't do this time. We purchased the combo ticket for mundomar and aqualandia, which was a good saving.

Were there during off season, looket pretty silent and empty. Bar and shop were closed, no shower and WC. Surroundings look incredibly. No problem to park a car nearby 😅

We arrived at the entrance of the road leading to the parking and beach past 3pm on a Sunday of July 2025. All cars were being stopped by entering the beach. The beach officer was talking to each car and explaining that parking is full already by 10ish am. So he handed out a brochure where to park it 2mins away from where he stopped us. He told us to get on the next beach bus which will take us down the beach. So we did. It was a small parking space but we did street parking in residential area beside it, just like what others did. And we waited for the bus. At the time, only 3 groups rode the bus. U have to pAy per person (2way already) but i think our 1yo was free of charge. I posted in the photo of the brochure here. Then we reached the beach in no time. Take note that it is a pebble beach, which i realized I prefer better than the sand, considering i have kids. I can relaxed a bit knowing they wont throw sands to each other. Though it is a bit of a struggle to make an umbrella stand on pebble and the sand underneath was a bit hard to stick on. Make sure u have proper footwear like almost everyone does. The smooth rocks seriously hurt our feet from walking. The water... the clearest Ive ever seen in Valencia/Alicante. At the right side of the cost is the clearest and a cove is nice like this with shadow so you can hide from the sun if you wish. There is also a shower which is i really like compared to other long beach where you can only wash ur feet. There are restaurants too and small hotels. Past 6pm, the cove is clearing up and so does the parking. So my husband rode the bus back to the parking lot and he brought it inside to the parking space within the vicinity so we dont need to pack up and leave for the last bus trip. We left around 8pm. Less people. More chill vibe. We really enjoyed it and will surely be back because im a sucker for crystal clear water.

Although a pebbly beach, it was very beautiful and not windy. The water was warm. There were jellyfish in the water the day that we came here, but it was still possible to find nice spots for a swim. There are rocks under water so need to watch out not to kick your foot. Toilet facilities are near the beach and free. There is a long road car park near the beach, but we parked before the access control on the road for free and trekked to get here for about 25-30 min. It was a nice hike so if anyone else is willing, it is an option, but you would have to follow the road to get down to the cove so I dont recommend doing that with children or a lot of bulky luggage. Plan ahead and take a backpack instead of a trolley or big hand bags.

Absolutely amazing! Early October, not too busy but still good weather and warm! Worth a visit.

This is a great cycling destination during the tourist off-season. From Xàbia, the road CV742 (towards Cap de la Nau), then 7420 goes up and down across a posh and quiet neighbourghood with little car traffic. The pebbly beach is nested in a lovely cove. Bring along food and fluids because there is nowhere to buy supplies. No toilets.

Fun Rocky beach (Pebbles) with a cool bar - definitively an Instagram looking spot! The water has an incredible turquoise color. Bring water shoes, as the rocks can be tough on your feet. We went by boat in September and it was easy to find a spot to anker and swim to shore to enjoy a beer and some snorkel. A great place to relax, enjoy the views, and snap some amazing photos.

Stunning place and beach, however it IS a stone beach so you will need water shoes. The parking is on a very high incline but it is worth driving there. There are some sunbeds but they are quite pricey and there isn't alot of them, so better to get there early. Theres also a small restaurant but we didnt visit.
