Casco antiguo de altea

Reviewed By Cath D

This is an interesting "casco antiguo" with loads of little streets and alleyways to explore, and lots of steps! The streets are laregly not commercially orientated so it makes for a great place just to wander about and absorb the atmosphere. Great views at odd moments from frequent "miradors".

Dinopark Algar

Reviewed By Paul_41LD - Dublin

This park is clean and well maintained. It's very focussed on small kids who love dinosaurs - there's not much else to it! It's difficult enough to access as it's above the excellent Falls at Algar. On a busy day, as we had in late...MoreHello, You are comparing apples with oranges here in your comment. Dinopark is for dinosaur lovers, if you love Waterfalls so you have a choice and go there. The road have nothing to do with Dinopark, (state owned).

Altea Club de Golf

Campo de golf ubicado en una montaña con vistas al mar construido en 1974. Su arbolado, orografía y diseño, hace del mismo un lugar ideal para la práctica del golf de todo tipo. A tan sólo 5 km de la Villa de Altea, lugar emblemático en la costa levantina

Reviewed By cok v - Altea, Spain

A mountain golf course that keeps you focused every time you play it.
Always a different approach no matter how many time you play it.
The most beautiful nature with holes where you can see the sea or spectacular mountainsides.
A course you will never forget but vary challenging and difficult to play.
The restaurant is excellent and has a club atmosphere with his large Dutch / English / German and Scandinavian population.
As golfer you may not miss the opportunity to play here.

Parque Natural de la Serra Gelada

Reviewed By DebsB - Portadown, United Kingdom

Walked from the tourist information office in Albir to the lighthouse, a good four miles there and back. The track is concreted and fully accessible. The incline would be manageable for most walkers including children. It is carefully sign posted and there are numerous points of information in several languages. The walker is rewarded by some truly spectacular views and upon reaching the lighthouse, you can see for miles. This lighthouse was only restored within the last 10 years and they have made a fine job of it. Look out for dolphins! The lighthouse area did appear to have limited opening hours, mostly mornings, according to a sign on the gate. Recommend this beautifully scenic walk which is well worth the effort.

Benidorm Old Town

Reviewed By AroundAndAbout2018

As you wander around the cobbled streets you find lovely little Spanish Tapas bars around every corner. Many offering good value and ideal to stop and do a little people watching. The views from the top are quits stunning, across 3 Beaches, the port, the Mediterranean and peacock island. Easy to spend a nice day just wandering. BUT. Do beware of scammers and pickpockets who also spend their days and nights there trying to relieve you of your money and possessions. Take care.

Parque Natural de Penyal D'Ifach

Reviewed By George G - Buxton, United Kingdom

I've been coming to Calpe for 40 years - and this year I resolved to climb the rock - which I did on Christmas day. There are some sections that are not for the faint hearted - and I can only agree with the warnings to wear proper walking footwear - it's slippy in places with many parts of the "path" being just a scramble over sharp rocks with a precipitous drop beneath you. All that having been said, the view from the top is worth the effort.

Museo Vehiculos Historicos Valle De Guadalest

Reviewed By Bluecheese11 - Basel, Switzerland

Nice place to stop on the journey back from Guadalest to the coast. The motorcycle collection is really impressive, all in perfect condition, like new, with a mix of European and US machines (including some US army ones with machine guns too). Only a few small cars on show. Next to the museum is a nice shop selling a variety of local produce, food, wines & spirits. Museum entry is only €3 per person.

Parroquia Nuestra Senora del Consuelo

Reviewed By nnmercman - Camberley, United Kingdom

The church is located in the small square which leads to the viewpoint of Mirador Cronsistas de Espana and is worth visiting just for the views. The church was closed when I visited but the square is lined with restaurants and is a pleasant spot to just sit and enjoy the ambience. Streets and alleys of the old town lead in all directions from the square. It’s quite a steep climb through the narrow cobbled streets but you can probably get a taxi.

Mirador Monte Toix

Reviewed By First_of_May - ITel-Aviv

The road leads about half the way and then it is blocked and you have to continue by foot - about 500 m. in steep climb. Then it becomes flat along the mountainside with great views to all directions - fron Penyal d'Ifac on one side to Faro Albir on the other.
