Plenty to see and do in this bustling town from the food scene (Els Magazinos with its street food is a must) to the Castle and Port. Worth a trip out.

Fun day out in Benidorm- you can get a discount for tickets to both Aqualandia and Mundomar but in my opinion you want a day for each…

Hikes

For the serious hiker… the Montgo is a must! Either from Jesus Pobre or the shooting range on the mountain pass from Javea/Denia. For the less serious walker but if you still want a taste of the incredible views, walk up to the cave from Jesus Pobre 20mins climb.
Amazing views for the serious walker. Make sure you are prepared with maps, appropriate footwear and water, not to be underestimated! For a taste of the views but a short walk only, walk up to the cave from Jesus Pobre, (40 mins walk).
