Beautiful beach with shallow turquoise waters, in a protected area. In April it was very dirty under piles of algae. And they collect 5 euro for parking, no matter if you want to stay 1 hour or all day. Also, the last 2 km of road is very narrow. In summer, when the traffic is heavy, it won't be fun.

A very beautiful and interesting beach. But it doesn't deserve all five stars for several reasons. The first thing to pay is to enter the parking lot. Secondly, black algae collects in some parts of the water. Third, there is only one small modest bar where you can buy a drink or a snack. But in general, the water is clear, clean, shallow for children and very pleasant for swimming. Yachts are anchored not far from the coast, which means that many people come here to swim. The beach is clean and spacious, so there are no big crowds. In my opinion, it is worth taking the time to come for two or three hours and then go to the next beach.

A very nice long sandy beach, during the day surely very crowded in August. We were there in the evening (a very good spot for sunsets), then it was bearable. Parking fee is 5 euros for cars, no matter when you arrive, and the parking lot closes at 9 p.m. The access road to the parking lot is a long narrow street with a lot of oncoming traffic. The toilets at the beach entrance were the most disgusting thing I have ever experienced in my life – filthier than at any festival. Supposedly the place is a nature reserve, but there is a lot of trash lying around.

Very beautiful beach with a large parking lot 3 minutes from the beach with a fixed fee of €8 for a day, for those who say that the road to the parking lot is narrow and that parking is expensive, I don't know what world you live in.

For the end of October we found this beach very dirty. If you don’t want to pay the €8 for parking, you can park for free in Colonia Saint Jordi, on Av. Primavera, on the white lines and then walk to the beach. But better choose the more beautiful beaches from the south of the island, like Cala Santanyi, Llombards or Moro.

Don’t waste time on your trip to visit this beach. There are many beaches with clear water that you don’t have to pay for parking. Also this beach has absolutely no shade anywhere. No showers, no bathroom, no changing rooms. When I visited the amount of seaweed made the water like mud.

you don't have showers. you don't have toilets. parking is 8€ all day and extremely hot. it is recommended to take an umbrella and drinking water. in return the beach is very beautiful with a smooth entrance and crystal clear water.

Soller is a beautiful sea side town with several small local shops and restaurants. Its relaxing to just walk around, take in the beautiful views, enjoy the fresh air. We took the train into town, while the train was very full of people, it was a nice ride into town. Might be less crowded earlier. Great way to spend a day, enjoy a lunch and wander in and out of the shops. (It wasnt loaded with the shirt shops and souvenirs)

We had a lovely time catching the train from Palma to Soller. I would recommend purchasing your tickets in advance and getting to the station at least 30 minutes before the train is due if you want to sit together. People queue on the platform up to an hour before departure time. We arrived to get the 12 midday train but there were no tickets so we had to wait until 1.30pm which was fine. The train takes around an hour and the route is very scenic, it is an old wooden train. It was a really pleasant trip. There are many opportunities for great photos and videos along the way, through olives groves and mountain views. Would recommend, as it is a lovely trip. We were told by friends after that is is more cost effective to get the train there and the bus back, but we had already purchased return tickets. Once at Soller, you can get the tram down to the Port which was equally lovely.

This was a lovely excursion and the views were beautiful. You het the train from Palma the the tram down to Port Soller. Recommend buying tickets in advance as its very busy, however this is pointless for the trams as its a free for all. We were OK going down to the port but returning was awful! We were squashed on like sardines! There didn't seem to be anyone really stopping people from squeezing on! The experience was worth doing but make sure you don't value your personal space! We drive there later in the week and the views were better and space wasn't an issue. But we can say we've done it. The towns were beautiful though and definitely worth visiting.

The Sóller tram is a lovely and charming experience that we truly enjoyed. However, it's important to note that it gets extremely crowded. The current frequency of the trams doesn't seem sufficient to handle the massive volume of tourists, leading to significant congestion and wait times.

The train and tram ride from Palma to Port de Sóller offers a nostalgic journey through Mallorca’s stunning countryside. The historic wooden train, in service since 1912, travels 27 km through the Serra de Tramuntana, passing tunnels, bridges, and citrus groves. At Sóller, passengers transfer to a charming 1913 electric tram that winds through the town and down to the scenic harbor. Originally built to transport oranges, the route is now a beloved attraction. With vintage carriages and panoramic views, this ride combines history, culture, and natural beauty in one unforgettable experience.

Travelled by Train from Palma to Sóller and to the Port by Tram. Both places worth a couple or three hours. On returning to Sóller Train station, I found, in the old station building a free exhibition of the works of Picasso and Miro. There were great views from both the Train and the Tram.

Excellent trip. We travelled by bus there and returned on the train. Lovely train ride. Shame it wasn't orange season.

I recommend to get here early we were there at 09H45 and got straight in. When we left there were huge queues. It's a very good aquarium, lots to look at and do. I only rated it 4 stars as we missed the Mediterranean gardens and went straight to the jungle, the staff were ushering families that way but not us. The shark tank is good but its sad to see theese beautiful animals in captivity. All accessible for wheelchair users its a great place to visit for a few hours. I recommend going early on a rainy day to kill a few hours

On Monday, we visited the Palma Aquarium on the coach which is included in the price (we booked through Jet2, who are based in the hotel) and had an absolutely fantastic day! There’s so much to see and do — and we even did one of the extras: the bottom glass boat ride in the shark tank. It was €12 each and definitely worth it! I believe under 3s go free (but double check just in case). My little one had a fantastic day. It is one of the best aquariums I have been to there is so much to do for all ages! Staff were lovely and helpful throughout the day!

We visited Palma Aquarium in Mallorca for the first time, and overall, it was a nice experience. The atmosphere is pleasant, and the place is well organized. The highlight for us was definitely the shark tank – it was fascinating to see them up close! The ticket also included a 3D cinema with a short film about whales that lasts around 10–15 minutes, which was interesting and enjoyable, especially for kids. I would recommend visiting with young children, as there are many different species of fish and sea creatures to see. The only downside is the ticket price, which I find quite expensive considering you can go through the entire aquarium in less than an hour.

Beautiful Aquarium. Its nice place to spend time with family and children. Clean easy to navigate in areal. A plenty of beautiful and colorful fish and corals from different seas. Plus is as well rainforest garden and medittarean garden. There are options for snack and food in reasonable prices. Clean and tidy toilets. We booked tickets online and went around 11.00 on weekday so there wasn t mmy people . Ticket price its worth it . Thank you for nice spend day.

30 Euros for adults but there are some package deals on their website that include some of the 'extras' like a shark boat or 3D cinema etc. We opted for straight entry for 3 adult tickets and received ten Euros off. It's a quality aquarium kept spotlessly clean and tidy. There are lots and lots of small to medium sized viewing tanks as you wander an obvious route. The glass magnifies them so you get to appreciate the colours and detail and they have a superb selection. Initially its very dark. So much so that you can easily bump into people but then your eyes eventually adjust. The more popular tanks have a bit of a wait to get to the front as you would expect but totally worth it. Even the souvenir shop at the end has some really good stuff!

Enjoyed the aquarium but it's way too expensive for the time I spent walking around everything (90 mins). No turtles on display but the two big tanks were amazing, the informative information was very good. More aimed at children in general and trying to upsell photographs, gifts from the shop which is disappointing.

Great experience overall! The Palma Aquarium offers a wide variety of marine life and beautifully designed tanks. The big shark tank is truly impressive. It’s a bit pricey, but worth it for families and ocean lovers. Staff were friendly, and everything was clean and well-maintained. Could use more interactive exhibits, but still a great visit. I’d definitely recommend it if you're in the area.

Historical cathedral, research hours and buy your tickets in advance. Don't be surprised to see street vendors on the grounds. The number 25 bus drops you off very close and the city center is just behind it. Cobblestone so watch you footing. Fun place to walk around, even if you don't buy tickets to go inside. Enjoy!

When I visited Mallorca, seeing the Catedral-Basílica de Santa María (La Seu) was non-negotiable, and I’m so glad I went. It is one of the most stunning Gothic buildings I have ever seen. What really blew me away was its dramatic location—it sits right on the edge of the old city walls overlooking the sea, and the sheer scale of the architecture is breathtaking from the moment you approach it. I spent a long time just admiring the exterior. Inside, it was all about the light. The most famous feature is the enormous rose window, often called "The Gothic Eye." If you can time your visit right, the way the light streams through the glass and illuminates the massive, airy interior is just magical. I was also really interested to see the modernist input by Antoni Gaudí near the altar—it adds a fascinating, unexpected touch to the medieval space. Honestly, if you are in Palma, you absolutely have to schedule time for this. It’s not just a beautiful church; it’s a powerful piece of art and history that truly defines the city skyline.

We entered here with no expectations but the building definitely implies something spectacular inside. It does not disappoint. It is very busy inside but there is peace and tranquility to be found. You can have a quiet moment of reflection and find out so much fascinating history.

A must-visit in Palma — the £10 (approx. €10) entry fee is genuinely worth it. The Cathedral of Mallorca delivers everything you hope for: breathtaking architecture, rich history, and a serene atmosphere that makes it much more than just another tourist stop. From the moment you step in, the grandeur of the Gothic nave and the soaring stained glass windows grab your attention. Even on the standard ticket (which you noted is the cheapest option), you’re able to take in the key highlights — no hidden upsell required to appreciate the core experience. The cost-to-value ratio is excellent. The staff were courteous and helpful, and the location in Palma de Mallorca is hard to beat. If you’re in the area, set aside at least an hour. Bring your camera, perhaps a bit of quiet reflection time, and enjoy one of the most emblematic buildings in the Mediterranean. Highly recommended — excellent value, well preserved and beautifully presented.

It’s our first time in Mallorca, and we immediately visited the Cathedral of Santa Maria, which is very close to our accommodation. The place is beautiful and offers a truly special experience. There are always many tourists around, but that only shows how popular and worthwhile this location is. The cathedral itself is impressive, monumental, and wonderfully preserved. The view from it is even more stunning – you can see the entire marina with boats and large cruise ships, creating an incredible panorama and perfect photo opportunities. Overall, a definite recommendation for anyone visiting Mallorca. One of the places you simply shouldn’t miss!

Beside being a very important religious place, It is a great piece of architecture. It took 400 years to complete it. The famous architect Antoni Gaudi also contributes a lot. This beautiful Roman Catholic Church is located in the heart of Mallorca opposite seashore. it is the most visited place in Mallorca. The interior of Cathedral is amazing. The beautiful sculptures and stained colorful glass windows are worth seeing. The ambiance inside is very serene. The entry fee is 9 Euros. Not to be missed...

Buying ticket on plac is possible, but the lady on the desk is rude. You can spare this emotion. The cathedral is amazing. For 10 EUR I would expect an audio-gyide as it was in Valencia cathedral for example. The explanations are here and there, there are a lot of figures and chapels without any information. It is worth visiting, but I expected more information.

Absolutely amazing castle. Great museums in multiple languages. It's a step walk up there and lots of climbing. But well worth it. An historic monument that Palma can be very proud of. Normally only 4 euro entrance fee (bargain), but free on Sunday (even better bargain!!). Absolutely recommended.

Castell de Bellver, whose name literally translates to 'beautiful view' in old Catalan, is an absolute must-see when visiting Palma. Its unique circular Gothic design—the only one of its kind in Spain—sets it apart immediately. Perched on a forested hill about three kilometers west of the city center, the castle offers a stunning 360-degree panorama of the entire Bay of Palma, the city's harbor, and the distant Tramuntana mountains. The main draw is walking the rooftop battlements, where you can fully appreciate the scale of the structure and the vistas. Inside, the central circular courtyard is a masterpiece of medieval architecture, and the ground floor houses the City History Museum. Beyond its royal history, the castle served as a military prison for centuries, adding a layer of dramatic history. While getting up the hill requires a little effort (or a bus ride), the payoff in views and historical significance makes it well worth the trip.

Castell de Bellver – A Panoramic Gem Above Palma We visited Castell de Bellver as part of our 48-hour City Sightseeing hop-on hop-off bus tour, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our Palma itinerary. The bus dropped us right near the entrance, making access effortless and scenic—winding through pine-covered hills with glimpses of the sea. The castle itself is a rare circular fortress with Gothic architecture and a commanding view over the Bay of Palma. Its unique design and elevated position make it feel like a watchtower over centuries of history. Inside, the museum offers a compact but rich narrative of Palma’s past, and the central courtyard is a peaceful spot to pause and soak in the atmosphere. What truly stood out was the panoramic terrace—360° views that stretch from the Tramuntana mountains to the cathedral and port. It’s a photographer’s dream and a moment of quiet majesty above the bustle below. Entry was included with our bus ticket, which made the experience feel even more seamless and well-integrated. If you’re doing the hop-on hop-off tour, this stop is absolutely worth it—both for the history and the views.

For €4 it is great value. This is a truly memorable visit. Situated atop a wooded hill just outside Palma, the Castell de Bellver offers sweeping panoramic views of the city, the bay and the Mediterranean—a fitting interpretation of its name, which translates as “beautiful view”. The castle itself is remarkable. Built around 1300–1310 for King James II of Mallorca, it stands as one of the few circular-plan castles in Europe and certainly the only one of its kind in Spain. Wandering the interior courtyard, ramparts and the keep you can really sense its mix of royal residence and fortress. Inside you’ll also find a well-curated city history museum, providing insights into Palma’s evolution from ancient times to the present day. The forest around the castle adds a relaxing walk-up through pine trees, making arrival feel more like an experience rather than just a stop. A few practical notes: Be prepared for some uphill walking if you approach on foot or via public transport. Visit during late afternoon if possible—the golden light enhances the castle’s stonework and the views-out become especially atmospheric. Allow enough time to explore both the exterior terrace and the museum inside. Check opening hours in advance (note: Mondays may be closed) and consider a guided tour to appreciate the architecture and history more fully.

As castles go I'd say this is generally a nice castle. 4 stars for 2 reasons....1) we couldn't access the tallest tower and nobody mentioned that. Just imagine the views... 2) I'd have loved to understand more about the castle but all the info boards were in spanish only (yes I know, its in Mallorca but its a tourist destination....help the tourists out!)....yes, technology allows translation easy enough but its the inconvenience. Anyway, the castle is set within a large park area full of trails, roads and lots of steps. I probably would not recommend tackling this place if you aren't too steady on your feet or have a wheelchair. We entered from the East side nearest the church. The steps up to the castle got the heart rate up for sure. We noticed lots of joggers using the park and bounding up the steps. We also noticed lots of tourists with tight tops looking a bit sweaty....loose clothing recommended. See pics for some idea of the mountainous ascent. Anyway, there's lots to see in the castle. Mostly statues. There was a wedding taking place when we were there. What a lovely setting indeed. One of the best part of visiting this castle was the incredible circular, almost Colosseum like central structure but beyond that the views. Simply stunning in all directions. Go on a clear day! Aside from that I wish we'd had more time to explore the grounds around the castle. Overall if you fancy taking a break away from the busy centre of Palma, then take a bus or taxi ( it takes no time from the centre) and enjoy taking in some breathtaking views and a wonderful piece of history.

Ate too much on this trip? Take a walk from the city center & climb up the endless stairs. You will find a treasure you did not know you were looking for. The only annoying thing is, once you arrive after that many stairs, they ask you to walk another a couple hundred meters to get a ticket. While walking over, cursing “ it better be worth it” , and it is. There is a museum, excellent views, not too many people unlike the Catedral, the ticket is only 4 euros. Now you feel better and thinking, you accomplished something today, and you did in a way ❤️

Marvelous castle settle on top of a hill with wonderful views of the city, the harbour and the sea. There's a parking place just in front of the entrance. Inside the castle there's a museum with the history of the castle , from the first human settlements till the last use like a jail in the past century. Very well preserved, so clean all around. A place to visit for it's importance in the history and because the surrounding views

This is NOT a parking spot. Tourists have ruined the land so they can park. Locals are letting tyres down. DO NOT RISK IT

Didn't have a good experience, cost me a fortune to recover my car after it was towed away.

It was a very cute beach just to stop in for an hour in the afternoon. You’re good to swim around in the reefs. There’s no immediate danger. The wreaths are safe to step on, and there is a little trash, but not too much The people are very friendly as well

Water is perfect but is overcrowded and there are less overrun parts of Formentera to enjoy. DO NOT EAT AT LA PIRATA! Worst tourist trap in Ibiza, paella is not cooked through .

Impressive!! What a beach! 😍 The sand feels like powder, the water is crystal clear and calm, and you can walk far out and it stays the same depth… absolutely loved it!

Fantastic sunset. Beautiful beaches. Can get there easily with moto beautiful weather in October. No crowds perfect.

Mindblowing beach. I would recommend to stay for 2, 3 days if possible in Formentera. It is indeed one of the most beautiful beaches in the world.

Busy beach. Would advise walking right down to the end or sitting on the side with the waves if you prefer less people around. We thought we could walk from the port, but it was a little far. I believe there's a bus (l13) or hire a bike.

The most beautiful beach on Formentera, there is one restaurant that is too expensive, there are sunbeds and umbrellas that must be reserved in advance

We spent a full day at CBbC (Cala Bassa Beach Club) and absolutely loved it. The beach setup is beautifully designed, with comfortable sunbeds and Balinese beds spread out under the shade of pine trees, giving it a very relaxed yet luxurious feel. The service was excellent — our waiters were very friendly, always attentive, and served us with a genuine smile, which made us feel very welcome. They regularly checked in to make sure we had everything we needed. The beach itself is stunning, with soft sand and crystal-clear turquoise water. It’s shallow and calm, perfect for swimming or just cooling off. We spent hours in the water, and it really is one of the nicest swimming spots we’ve visited in Ibiza. The atmosphere is lively but still classy. There’s good music playing, and a mix of families, groups of friends, and couples — so it feels vibrant without being a party scene. On the downside, it does get very crowded, especially on weekends in July, so I definitely recommend booking your beds in advance if you want a good spot. It is also quite expensive, both for the beds and the food and drinks, so be prepared for higher prices than at a typical beach bar. However, the quality of the experience makes it worth it if you’re looking for a special beach day. We ordered a mix of dishes — steaks, sushi, and salads — and everything was delicious and nicely presented. The cocktails were also great and beautifully served. Despite the crowds and the prices, we had a fantastic day and felt it was totally worth it. We will definitely come back again!

Amazing beach, bar and restaurant, hire of beds available but unsure the price, public toilets there, jetski & boat hire, views are amazing 😍

Beach club if you want it. Umbrellas for hire on the beach if you don't. Free parking and useful attendants to help you find a space. Beach is amazing but very busy.

This is the best beach in Ibiza I would say. Cristal clear water as always. The sea is calm, ideal for swimming, snorkeling, and paddleboarding. Great for families due to the gradual entry and shallow areas. CBbc, a high-end beach club that stretches along the bay with restaurants, bars, loungers, music, and luxury service with fantastic food and sunbeds.

❤️🙏I visited a beautiful sandy beach – clean and really pleasant. During the summer season it gets quite crowded, but it’s full of life and color. There are many vendors offering all kinds of things, including people making braids right on the spot. The sand is super soft, perfect for relaxing or walking barefoot, and the water is fairly clear. You can even spot lots of little fish swimming around – and sometimes even stingrays! A lively and charming place to enjoy the sea and the summer vibe.☀️🫧 I been there couple years ago but In different time and was better mostly because was less people ☺️😆

Very Beautiful Beach and was one of my favorites on my trip to Ibiza. The azure water is so beautiful here.

When it’s raining car park, it’s became a big lake And you can meet on beach people who want to sell your souvenirs and clothes

For me, it's a fantastic place to spend at least part of the day in these idyllic landscapes. The beach is fantastic and although there can be big waves, with less wind it's truly heavenly. The colors of the water and sky turn this place into a European paradise spot.

Every time coming to Cala Comte is amazing. Sea colours are unique, water very clear, sand thin everything just perfect for a perfect beach day. Pink sand also seen and fishes swimming next to people. Lovely. Is a must to see when in Ibiza island.

Crazy crowded and beautiful with options for those that wanna go topless and those that don’t. There’s a restaurant here and places to buy souvenirs. You can rent chairs as well. The water is perfect and you can see the sunset from here. parking is a short walk away from here.

25 April 2024 Beautiful beach with sand and clear water. I think it's the most famous beach in Ibiza. There are a lot of restaurants where you can refresh yourself. I really recommend to go there for a sunset which leave you breathless, very romantic! To reach there roads are bad

Platges de Comte is absolutely breathtaking — one of the most beautiful beaches in Ibiza! The water is unbelievably clear and shimmers in every shade of blue and turquoise, perfect for swimming and snorkeling. The surrounding rocky cliffs and small coves add to the stunning natural scenery. It’s also one of the best spots on the island to watch the sunset — truly unforgettable. The vibe is chilled yet lively, and there are a couple of great beach bars where you can enjoy a cocktail or a delicious meal while soaking in the views. Whether you’re here to relax, explore, or just take in the beauty, Platges de Comte is a must-visit for any Ibiza itinerary.

One of the best beaches in Ibiza...there you can come with taxi or bus number L4 from Sant Antoni bus station or with your own car... There is parking if you come with car... The water is so clear and clean... It's not so deep, and you can come so far in the water from the beach... The beach is not so big, but always you can find place to put your towel... There is two great restaurants with so quality food and drink... It's not so expensive... There is lot of young people... One of the nicest sunset on the island... Great view... All recommendations for visit and spend all day if you are at Ibiza 👌

Parking was easy to find and conveniently close to the beach, which was a great start. However, the experience at Ashram Restaurant wasn’t ideal – prices are quite high, and because many people are waiting for a table, you feel rushed to finish your meal and leave quickly. Finding a free sunbed on the beach is nearly impossible, so I definitely recommend bringing your own umbrella and a good book – you’ll likely be sitting on the sand. That said, the sea is absolutely stunning – honestly, one of the most beautiful beaches I’ve ever seen. Of course, it’s very crowded, so I’m not sure July is the best time to visit. Still, if you’re looking for crystal-clear water, this place is hard to beat.

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

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.

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.

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. La zona de fiesta muy cerca también. Además está rodeado de calles céntricas con multitud de tiendas ,bares, restaurantes...

Absolutely brilliant place to spend a couple of hours. It's free to access but if you want to use the lift it cost €2.70 (can only pay by card). A few refreshment areas within the castle selling drinks and ice cream. Well worth a visit!

You have the option to go up the castle via the side walk (not very hard but neither easy) or take the lift (you need a ticket). If you go up via the park you can go down without the need to buying a ticket - pretty convenient. The lift is the best option for a hot or rainy day, or with limited mobility.

When visiting Alicante, it is essential to set aside half a day to explore this castle, and all its history, which is rich and varied. You will have the opportunity for an incredibly beautiful view of the city and the sea. We recommend from the bottom of our hearts.

When I visited Alicante, I’m so glad I took the time to explore this castle, it was honestly one of the highlights of my trip. The history is so rich and interesting, and walking through the different areas really makes you feel connected to the past. The views from the top are absolutely stunning; seeing the whole city and the sea from up there felt amazing. I truly recommend setting aside at least half a day for it. From my heart, this is a place you don’t want to miss.

The elevator up to Castille de Santa Barbara is access from the beach side. Cross the road towards the castle and you will see the entrance. The cost of the elevator is only a few euros per person well worth the spend. Take the elevator up, then do yourself a favor, and walk down through the tiny Pueblo (village) Barrio de Santa Cruz.

Fantastic views across the city of Alicante. Get there just before sunset to watch it setting in the West. We visited for a Wine tasting session in the evening, very popular so need to book well in advance.

The view is nice. There’s an elevator from the beach side — the ride costs €2.70.

Zenia Boulevard is a fantastic shopping experience! The mall has a great mix of shops for every taste, from fashion and homeware to electronics and gifts. The atmosphere is lively and welcoming, and the outdoor design makes it a pleasure to stroll around. The food court is excellent too, with plenty of choices to suit everyone – from quick bites to sit-down meals. A perfect place to shop, eat, and enjoy a great day out!

Fantastic shopping center lot's to do restaurants tenpin bowling 🎳 me and my lad's had a great time

Nice shopping area that have many brand stores and much else. A plus for the very nice toilets but a minus for the restaurants (a bit pricey for what you get). Of course this is friendly to wheelchairs. There are also playgrounds for kids, they seem to love the water fountain.

Call out to all UK shopping centers. Visit this place to see how a shopping centre should be run. It's spotlessly clean, shops are full and not boarded up, free parking and it's packed full of shoppers. It's a great place to shop for clothes or food. Plenty of cafes and ice cream parlours, places for kids to play. Open until late in the evening for convenience after work. I've not heard a bad thing said about Zenia Shopping Centre.

Great shopping centre, mostly open air and with a vast choice of shops to choose from. Plenty of parking and they offer events and other activities all summer and at important holidays. Also huge food court with lots of buffet options too

Very good shopping centre! Plenty of variety and plenty of eating places around the top aswell! Views from the top are lovely!

a good time to spend leisure time and buy things necessary for everyday life, also a large grocery store, where you can buy many different products. A large selection of clothes from the budget option to the expensive. A large selection of shoe stores. Many good cafes and restaurants. Having arrived here you can spend whole days :)

Awesome place to visit. Clear water beach, not crowded, parking is a bit tough though. Great for kayaking and snorkeling too.

We did the tour so we could go all the way up in the light house. It's a 6 Euro admission p.p and takes approximately 30-40 minutes. The stairs are very narrow so you go up in single file. The tour guide speaks about the history of the light house and you get a good sense of when and how it was build. The tour is in Spanish so if you want to follow you need some basic knowledge of the Spanish language. The 360 view is stunning and you can see all round. All together a nice piece of history from the region.

Our guide Emma was great. She gave us a lot of interesting information about the lighthouse, the surrounding area, and local history. Her commentary was in spanish and English. She would answer any questions and give extra information. The lighthouse itself was easily worth the €6. The views from the top were lovely. 30 minutes long and only 10 guests was perfect.

Very nice place. Very nice beaches and places to dive and snorkel is amazing close to the Faro. Videos YouTube: Norwegian Viking in Spain.⛵️

Stunning views.... And the lighthouse in amazing condition.... Sadly you don't just go for a walk around But still worth a visit

Nice lighthouse on the top of the hill. Beneath it small lagune. Unfortunately it's no access to the lighthouse itself, it would be nice to climb on the top. The view from nearby is amazing, Mediterranean sea in it's beauty is enormously beautiful. Also nice view to Mar Menor. Free parking. No charge for entering the area.

One of the great sites of Spain let alone Murcia. Plus the restaurants and beaches of Cabo de Palos are next door.

Murcia centro & cathedral are definitely worth visiting! Beautiful architecture and plenty of bars and restaurants to sit and watch the world go by. (Loves people watching) 👀 🤣

We loved our visit to the Catedral de Murcia! ⛪️ The architecture is absolutely breathtaking, with its mix of Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque details—you can spend ages just admiring the façade and intricate doors. The plaza in front is vibrant and welcoming, filled with cafés and terraces where we enjoyed a hearty brunch while soaking up the atmosphere. ☕🥐 It was such a nice stopover in Murcia—easy to wander, beautiful to photograph, and full of charm. The cathedral itself is impressive inside and out, and the surrounding square feels like the heartbeat of the city. 🌞 If you’re traveling through Murcia, don’t miss this gem—it perfectly combines history, culture, and a relaxed Spanish vibe. Highly recommended for anyone passing by! 🌟

Beautiful cathedral with a fascinating mix of architectural styles visible from the outside. The details and decorations are absolutely breathtaking, and it really makes you appreciate these kinds of buildings that simply aren’t built anymore. Entrance is €5 for the cathedral alone or €7 if you want to visit both the cathedral and the museum. The downside is that in the museum almost all descriptions are only in Spanish, with just a few objects explained in English. For most of the exhibition you’ll need to rely on Google Translate.

Beautiful cathedral and square with nice options for tapas. We were lucky to visit on Sunday morning to enjoy the services .

The main attraction in Murcia is this magnificent cathedral. The facade has many saints and the structure has many architectural designs. Definitely a must visit.

Beautiful architectural masterpiece. Other elements of the area organically complements the cathedral

Amazing to see the beauty of this building both inside and outside! Great point to navigate the city from!

This is a wonderful attraction and the main reason we drove 1 hour to Cartegena. There is an informative exhibition you walk through giving historical information on Cartagena and the Romans. You eventually come out into the Theatre and have to say it looked amazing. This was big enough to seat 7000 people so can only imagine the atmosphere it would have had back in those times. The view from there would have been terrific as well. Two adults were €8 each and 2 students at €7 each. £22.72 for a family of 4 in total. It always amazes me how much cheaper it is to visit places in Europe compared to the United Kingdom. I'm guessing there may be heavier government funding contributing but museums like this are kept immaculate and everyone visiting is very respectful of their surroundings.

We sailed in on the Star Princess. Had a tour through Princess. Amazing museum and ancient ruins. We had the place to our tour group. A few folk were there before and after who were on their own. It is a very large place. When you go in to the museum make certain you look at the ancient founding double wall, built by the Phoenecians.

We visited while on a cruise excursion. We were in a small group, but 50 small groups ='s too many people in a very special place. It definitely a bucket list place to see though!

The Roman Theatre in Cartagena, an Incredible place with a rich history, is a true gem – remarkably well-preserved for its age, over 2,000 years old, it is impressive both in terms of atmosphere and scale. It's a must-see on the Cartagena map – perfect for history and architecture enthusiasts. Tickets aren't necessary just for spectacular photos; it's worth visiting in the evening when everything is beautifully illuminated. The view from the publicly accessible, upper section near Torres Park is excellent and for free.

Beautiful place! We planned to go inside, wouldn't mind paying but ended up from our carpark in the gardens on top of it and found out you can walk all around it with views of it all for free. So if you're not bothered for the museum inside, no need to pay to see the theatre. At the top there are gardens and more to see of a little castle. Whole Cartagena is worth the visit

Ancient amphitheatre and modern museum in Cartegena... a lovely place to spend a few hours taking in the sights and soaking up the history. The town itself has a great selection of shops, bars and restaurants, some of which are tucked down little side streets. All of this is a short walk from the beautiful marina.

I just can't understand how places like this get buried or built on top of. I dont understand past rulers or crusades. So much history here and so well preserved. One certainly does not need to imagine much here to see how it actually was. It would be amazing to hear a concert here today.

This is one of my most favourite beaches! Parking available up the hill. About 15-20min walk down. Dont wear flip flops if you can help it. Waves were very harsh but very enjoyable.

Amazing beach! Must go in Cabo de Gata. You can park for free and there’s a place to buy food or drinks on the road. It’s a short 5-10 minute walk to the beach but very accessible

Beautiful Beach, but wear good shoes for the path downhill. For the Beach we could have had bathing shoes, but managed without. Few People on an day with low wind in November, it was an amazing experience 🤩

Amazing pebbly beach. Pebbles are small and smooth, very comfortable to walk and relax upon. The path down to the beach is somewhat uneven so take care and wear good shoes.

Beautiful beach, nice walk. There is parking on the side, and then some walk down to the beach.

Stunning blue waters. Unfortunately the waves were crazy so didn’t swim that much. Bring water shoes. Parking was ok. There is a lot with paid parking but you can also park on the side of the road for free no problem. ~20 min to get down to the beach.

Loved it! Crystal clear. At least 3 different fish in the shallows; a mask is a must to see them better. Great car parking but sooooo busy even today at 16:00 on 10/09/25. 6€ charge up to 19:00. Water, ice-cream and other things sold by the car park. Uneven 15 minute walk down to the beach; wear good grip shoes or sandals. Gorgeous small stones on the beach make it really comfortable just with a towel; no chair needed.

My friends took me here on my last day in Almeria for a beach day and it was probably the best beach day that I've had abroad. Swimming in the refreshing Mediterranean was just dreamy. Clear waters, pebbly beach and not crowded at all. BYO shade as there are no trees. No public toilets or changing rooms from what I saw. We brought a picnic lunch with lots of water and fruit juice. The park is huge and has many beaches and even a wee township to explore or have food and drinks (will do this next time). Parking is free (on the side of the main road). I think we left at around 8pm. A totally relaxing day at the beach and not far from Almeria at all. I'd totally go back for sure!

This Natural Park is simply breathtaking! Best to explore by foot. The are numerous trails along the coast going up and down from one gorgeous beach to the next secluded cove, up you go giant sand dunes and down to an orchard of "pitas"...Please keep this please clean, DO NOT litter and leave nothing behind, thank you

Such an amazing place. Even though the sun wasn't shining it is still beautifull to drive around here. Really recommend it!!

Amazing view, simply surreal 😍

Awesome. The last semi arid zone in Europe. As inhospitable an environment as you will find yet filled with flora and fauna that can live nowhere else and stunning scenery. If you are in Almeria this area is a must see.

AMAZING place soooo gorgeous so much to do and see I'm in total and complete love xoxoxo

Wild desert, sandy beaches with people, stony beaches with no people, the highest lighthouse in the Mediterranean, snorkelling, views, starry nights, a sprinkling of good restaurants, history - plenty here for a week's holiday.

My first visit there I had my grandchildren with me for a week We done day trips out every day all good and fun But none of them could beat Mini Hollywood. Staff were fantastic Buffet was excellent. It's great for young and old. The zoo took a lot of walking around The swimming pool is great Definitely will recommend it for a great day out. And loved the show The actors were great and friendly had no problems with them taking pictures the. With family members

Visited for a 2nd time this year. Sure we were overcharged for 3 people today?? Visited the buffet restaurant last time in August and thoroughly enjoyed it. Everything, including drinks and deserts were included which made it so easy and the food was lovely. However, today we tried the Grill Mirador Okavango restaurant and was a little disappointed. It’s brought to you at the table rather than being able to go up to the counter to choose your own meat. The ribs were tiny and were a little underwhelming. The salad and accompanying bread were lovely. It would be nice if the drinks and dessert were included in the price like the buffet restaurant as that added to the price of your bill. There were very few people in the Mirador compared to the buffet, which shows that customers prefer the all inclusive buffet. If we were take any more visitors, we would definitely use the buffet restaurant. The cowboy show is very dramatic but ok and the Can-Can show is good. The zoo is very big but difficult to get around, so it would be nice if the train actually visited a few more enclosures and drove people back up the very steep hill (cardiac hill) to the Mirador Restaurant. Just felt that some of the animals needed more space as not all of them looked very happy in their enclosures. Perhaps less animals so others could have more space.

The theme park exceeded our expectations. We visited with our three kids, all under 8yo, and the whole family loved it. The setting is amazingly realistic, you feel like you are in a western movie. We spent a full day (from 10am until closure at 6pm) and the kids didn't want to leave. The shows, especially the stunt show was superb. I definitely recommend visiting.

Amazing place to go with the kids!! We Were there the whole day and never got bored. There were shows, the pool, the safari, museums and much more to see. We also had the lunch time buffet with our tickets which was nice food, all you can eat and drinks included. The whole experience was more than worth the money!!!!!!! We will definitely return 😁😁😁

Oh yes! This place truly deserves special attention for those who are passionate about the history of cinema, for those who love westerns, and for anyone who wants to dive into the historical atmosphere of what life in such settlements used to be like in the old days. There are theatrical performances that will help you feel the spirit of this place. You can easily spend the whole day here — in addition to the western-style village, you can also relax by the pool, and the area also features a huge zoo with many animals.

We spent about five hours wandering through the dusty streets of this incredible movie-set-style town, complete with saloon doors, staged shootouts with cowboys, a cowgirl show and sheriffs keeping order outside the jailhouse. The detail in every corner makes you feel like you’ve stepped straight into a classic Western film. What makes this place even more special is its history as many of the legendary Spaghetti Westerns, including The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, A Fistful of Dollars, and For a Few Dollars More, were filmed right here in the Tabernas Desert. You can still see the same streets and buildings that Clint Eastwood once rode through in those iconic scenes. The live shows were full of action and humour, and the whole town has this timeless cinematic feel. We didn’t even make it to the massive zoo or the water park this time, so there’s plenty left for another visit.

Loved it so much here. They have a souvenir shop, a bar and a shop woth handmade leather accessories such as belts and bags. There was a live actor show that was very entertaining and you were able to take pictures with the actors after. Buildings looked exacly like from the westerns and some even had the options to go inside of them or onto the balcony. There was a museum inside of one of the buildings and a couple had the layout of what diffrent rooms ect would have looked like back in the day.

We spent a few enjoyable hours exploring this historic site, and it was definitely worth it! One of the best parts is being able to walk up the towers and take in stunning panoramic views over Almería. As EU citizens, we got in for free, which was a great bonus. Non-EU visitors pay a small entry fee of €1.50, which is still excellent value. Just a heads-up: check the opening times before you go, especially in summer. The Alcazaba typically closes in the afternoon and reopens around 7 pm, so timing your visit makes all the difference!

This Alcazaba is really beautiful. I was shocked that it was free to enter. Lovely place to walk around even if the hill to get there is a bit steep! Definitely recommend visiting if you are in the area. Gives you a wonderful view of the town, port and sea.

A must see place when in Almeria. It is a little bit like Alhambra in Granada, but smaller. However, we only visited part.of it, not where the terraced garden is; therefore, potentially it's much more than what we saw. It was free to enter where we went and visiting earlier in the day is worth it to beat the crowd. It's popular with tour groups. Great view of the city from the top. There are areas where excavation had taken place to study its history.

The Alcazaba in Almeria is a must-see on the Andalusian coast. It's a beautiful fortress, stunningly built, perched on a rock with stunning views of the city and port. The cathedral in the cathedral square and the old town all capture the atmosphere of that era. Entry for free.

Beautiful place to visit while in Almería, surprisingly large fortress, easy walk but no for wheelchair users. Only accessible by stairs. Very nice area to see all Almería and the docks. Quite interesting story and a nice place to wonder around and take nice photos. Free entry!

The Conjunto Monumental de la Alcazaba in Almería is absolutely worth visiting and a true highlight of the city. This monumental complex offers a fascinating journey through centuries of history, from Moorish fortifications to Christian influences. The grounds are extensive, with well-preserved walls, beautiful gardens, and plenty of architectural details to admire. One of the best parts is that entry is free, which makes it accessible to everyone and a perfect choice for a leisurely afternoon. A visit here is not just about history – it’s also about the experience of walking through wide open spaces, taking in breathtaking panoramic views of Almería, the coastline, and even the surrounding mountains. It’s a place where you can take your time, enjoy a peaceful walk, and let your imagination travel back to times when the Alcazaba was a powerful stronghold. However, there are a couple of practical things to be aware of. Parking near the Alcazaba can be challenging, and the area directly behind the castle doesn’t give the best impression. There’s some visible criminal activity, a fair amount of litter, and groups of young people hanging around, which can feel a bit uncomfortable at times. That said, these issues are outside the main complex and do not take away from the beauty and historical importance of the Alcazaba itself. Overall, if you’re visiting Almería, the Alcazaba is a must-see. It combines history, culture, stunning views, and free entry – a perfect combination for anyone interested in exploring the city’s heritage.

We had free entry on the day, not sure why. The guy asked us where we are from and let us in for free 😊 Really interesting to visit. We relaxed there walking around for about 1.5h.

The Generalife is a true oasis of peace and beauty within the Alhambra. 🌺✨ Walking through these historic gardens felt like stepping into a living painting — vibrant flowers, perfectly manicured hedges, and the gentle sound of fountains and flowing water all around. 💧 The views over Granada and the surrounding mountains are breathtaking, especially at sunset, when the whole landscape glows. 🌄 Each corner has its own charm, from the tranquil courtyards to the elegant archways framing perfect photo spots. 📸 It’s the ideal place to slow down, breathe, and soak up centuries of history and artistry, away from the busier parts of the Alhambra. A must-visit for anyone who loves gardens, architecture, and a touch of magic. 🌟

Such beautiful gardens, which are well looked after. Too many people walking through (which includes myself), but the spot was amazing 👏. Thank you for sharing this magical place with tourists.

Beautiful place for a walk. The buldings, fountains and gardens are amazing! There were water points everywhere, so you can fill you bottle every 5 minutes. Good marking, so you see everything.

BOOK WEEKS/MONTHS IN ADVANCE!! was very hard to get a ticket but we managed it. Very pretty, some gardens and a building, lovely views of Alhambra. Recommend going here first and then to Alhambra.

Together with the Palacio de Nasaries, this is also a Must see in Alhambra. It is a garden that only female royal families lived, so very beautifully constructed with artistic gardening. You need to book tickets well in advance. We did 6 months ago. Otherwise cannot see. Takes at least 5-6 hours to see all 4 in Alhambra.

We started our Alhambra visit with the Generalife Gardens. Originally built in the 13th century as the summer palace of the Nasrid sultans, these gardens are simply breathtaking. Surrounded by a variety of plants and trees, you can hear the gentle sound of running water and fountains everywhere. The reflections, the scent of flowers, and the cool breeze create an incredibly peaceful atmosphere. Walking through the paths, with birds singing and water flowing beside you, makes you feel as if time slows down. The small pools and channels beautifully reflect the Nasrid architects’ love and respect for water. A refreshing, tranquil, and truly unmissable place in Granada! 🌿💧🌸

The Generalife ornamental gardens are truly impressive through their combination of simplicity and strategic placement. Located at the highest point of the Alhambra, they offer many scenic viewpoints over the city and the palace. The symmetrical design creates a calming atmosphere while also serving a practical purpose, providing ventilation and plenty of shaded areas. If you're visiting in the afternoon, I recommend starting with the gardens. You can walk through in about 45 minutes, but for a more relaxed visit with time for photos, plan for 1 to 1.5 hours.

The Alhambra in Granada is absolutely breathtaking. Every corner of the palace and gardens shows incredible detail and craftsmanship, making you feel like you have stepped back in time. The combination of intricate architecture, beautiful courtyards, and lush gardens creates a magical atmosphere that is hard to forget. Walking through the halls and seeing the ornate designs on the walls and ceilings is mesmerizing, and every view of the city from the fortress is stunning. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, making the visit smooth and informative. It’s a place that captures both history and beauty perfectly. Five stars out of five – a must-visit for anyone traveling to Spain.

The Alhambra in Granada is an absolute must see!!!! It’s by far one of the most stunning and memorable places I’ve ever visited. I would highly recommend you spend the extra money and purchase a guided tour - that way, you can learn all the historical facts about the Alhambra. I only bought the admission tickets and regretted not getting the guided tour! The Nasrid Palaces are breathtaking, filled with intricate details, grand architecture, and so much history. The gardens and water fountains are so beautiful. I’ve never seen anything like it before! The Generalife Gardens are equally impressive, with perfectly manicured greenery, peaceful fountains and streams, and beautiful structures. This was my favorite part of the visit. Be prepared for lots of walking and stairs, as some areas may not be entirely accessible for those who have mobility difficulties. Plan to spend an entire morning or afternoon exploring, because there is so much to see - also lots of photo opportunities. The Alhambra truly lives up to the hype and is an unforgettable experience in Granada! Highly recommend the visit! Be sure to purchase tickets in advance so you don’t miss out on this amazing experience.

I was awed by the beauty as well as the history of Alhambra. In 711, the Moorish from north Africa conquered the sourthern Spain. Before the Christians recaptured the land, Granada was the center of culture and commerce. The Nasrid Dynasty built the Alhambra palace, which consists of the Generalife garden(my favorite) and Palacios Nazaries palace. Throughout the Alhambra, you will see Moorish's incredible architecture and design combined with intelligent irregation system that draws water from the revier down below to provide the water for Alhambra. It was refreshing and peacful to see water running throughout the garden, fountains, court yard, and ponds. And the views are also amazing. From the palace balcony, you can see the old town Albaicin nestle on the hillside and part of Granada city. The best time to visit Alhambra is late Spring, early Summer or late Fall. Reserve your tickets early or sign up with a tour guide will save a lot of hassles.

An absolutely breathtaking place — the Alhambra is a masterpiece of history, art, and architecture. Every corner is filled with incredible detail, from the intricate carvings and mosaics to the serene courtyards and gardens. The views of Granada and the Sierra Nevada mountains are stunning, especially at sunset. The visit is very well organized, and the audio guide helps bring the history to life. Truly one of the most beautiful and inspiring landmarks in Spain — an unforgettable experience and a must-see for anyone visiting Granada!

Unlike anything I’ve ever seen. Worth all the praise and more! The fortress gardens are a sight to behold. Book tickets in advance. They tend to get sold out pretty quickly and months in advance. Last minute tickets via third party sellers are easily 4x, 5x the price. So book in advance or you might miss out.

Absolutely stunning. Book your tickets in advance - it is so worth it and breathtaking when you go. Took us 4-5 hours from beginning to end and was one of the highlights of our trip! The intricacy and the details are just incredible. We didn't do a tour but maybe next time for all the history!!

Book way in advance my friends. Tix sell out super early and fast. Your ticketed time will be for the palace, which is about 5-10 min walk from the main entrance so get there early to walk through to the palace. Of course it’s incredible. She’s stunning. Amazing. The sacred geometry of it all is just too much for words to explain. Take it all in. Don’t rush it. Don’t skip the museum on your walk through either; it’s free entry and shows lots of excavation goodies, provides context and information. No need for a tour group for this one, unless you’re super into them. Feel free to roam and take it all in without the time constrictions. You can always eavesdrop on other groups along the way as well. Heaps of podcasts to listen to on your drive/ride into the area to get yourself up to speed. There are also tour guides at the front if you do require guidance last minute. Parking is easy for cars, van, campers etc. Fee is a flat rate per hour; I think we paid like 7€ for the few hours we were there. Lots of parks and chill areas to have your pre prepared Brekky, lunch or snacks, and there are multiple cafes, bars & restaurants close by if needed. Toilets are spread out among the complex, with some accessible by wheelchair. Contact the site for info about your specific needs. They’ve done a great job by making it as accessible as possible for an ancient site. There are some rooms with ramps and others without. The stairs are a killer in the heat. Bring water. Bring water, maybe suncream depending on the times, bring a snack, the Alcazabar has a few flights of steep stairs to get to the top but it’s so worth it at the top and the walk back down is so easy. Walk through the parks and gardens on the way back and relax with water, coffee or beer along the way. Truly one of the most incredible experiences of my life. So thankful to have been able to visit this place. Thank you.

The caves are excellent, and unlike anything I’ve ever visited before. The audio tour is great and very informative. However the caves get very busy which really make moving around fairly difficult. The caves are also quite expensive and for a family of 6 cost over $100. Despite this the caves are a really unique and beautiful experience that I do recommend.

Amazing experience and a must do when in Nerja. We bought tickets just by Riu Monica hotel by the train stop. Train takes about 15 mins to get there. Had a drink at the cafe which has amazing views. Take headphones as can download tour guide when there.

The Cueva de Nerja is, without a doubt, a must-see natural wonder on the Costa del Sol. This spectacular cave system offers a truly awe-inspiring journey into the geological history of Andalusia. The sheer size and grandeur of the caverns are breathtaking. The cave boasts one of the world's most impressive geological features: a colossal, record-breaking stalagnate (a column formed by the fusion of a stalactite and stalagmite), which dominates the 'Cataclysm Gallery.' The rich formations, beautifully illuminated, showcase a mesmerizing array of stalactites, stalagmites, and flowstone. Beyond its natural beauty, the Cueva de Nerja is an invaluable archaeological treasure, containing prehistoric paintings and evidence of human occupation dating back tens of thousands of years. This dual nature—as a geological masterpiece and a historical site—makes the visit profoundly enriching. The tourist route is well-maintained and clearly signposted, providing a comfortable and safe experience. Moreover, the pleasantly cool underground climate offers a welcome respite from the Spanish heat. ​In summary, Cueva de Nerja is a spectacular and fascinating natural monument that beautifully marries epic natural formation with deep human history. It is an unforgettable experience.

Such an amazing place! The Nerja Caves are huge and so beautiful. The lights make everything look magical. It’s very clean, easy to walk around, and really well organized. A wonderful experience, totally worth visiting if you’re on the Costa del Sol!

Great place to visit. Audio guide is excellent. Make sure you bring your Bluetooth headphones for the audio guide because it's based on your cell phone. I do recommend getting tickets early if possible especially in the peak season because it can sell out. It's really nice and cool inside the caves and it's nice and hot outside. Don't forget to validate your parking and pay for it before you leave.

Enormously huge cave. 48h before your visit they release a limited 60 tickets for free. Definitely worth the visit. Temperature inside is the same or even warmer (visited in October). You can even download a free audioguide in many languages.

The caves were much bigger than I had expected. You would expect it to be cooler in the caves but it is warm but more humid as you get to the deepest part. Very enjoyable visit along with the VR show! Check it out!

We visited twice. In the first day the water was very calm and the beach had pebbles - 2 days later the beach was sandy and the water cold and “angry”. The entrance in the water is pretty deep. At every 2 steps the difference is more than 50cm depth. After 2 meters I wasn’t touching the bottom anymore. The color is wonderful, a very clean turquoise. If you want sun-beds you have to come early and you still might have low chances because people do reservations in advance. But there is room on the beach for towels and own umbrella if you are inspired enough to bring one.

The beach is set in a stunning natural landscape, with soft sand and a very welcoming atmosphere. There is free parking available right next to the beach, though it’s best to arrive early as spaces fill up quickly. On-site, you’ll find public restrooms and free water stations, which is a great convenience. There are also plenty of options nearby to grab a meal or enjoy a refreshing drink. For those looking for activities, you can rent a kayak or simply relax under a parasol with sunbeds. Overall, it’s a beautiful spot and definitely a place worth returning to.

Very nice beach, lots of people and umbrellas, but everyone can find a place. Lots of parking but very hard to find a free spot, but with pacience it can be done. The entrace in the sea water is kind of rough, water gets over your dead pretty fast from the shore. Lots of restaurants and shopping store near the beach.

Fine gravel beach, that has public toilets close by. Nice clean beach and clear sea, good for snorkeling. Promenade is lined with shops, Bars & Restaurants

We arrived here at the beach around 1 PM and none of the beach clubs had any places left as they were already full and we couldn’t rent any sunbeds or umbrellas, so instead of leaving this beach, we decided to buy beach chairs and a umbrella from a store nearby which costed us around hundred euros for two people, but this allowed us to pick a spot that we would prefer a bit further from people. The water is very cold I would say but the beach is well organized with showers and many bars or restaurants around it so you could really enjoy your beach day but maybe if you’re really into swimming not really the best place to be.

Lively and buzzing family beach. Great reasonably priced restaurants. Clean and free toilets. Definitely recommend the kayaking, which is great fun. Pedalos are great fun too…as long as a sudden squall does not appear. One of my favourite European family beaches.

Absolutely lovely beach. Nice shops and restaurants. Crushed stone like sand but beautiful crystal clear water when calm.
