Calpe: Home of the Iconic Peñón de Ifach
Discover the Jewel of the Costa Blanca
Nestled along Spain’s shimmering Costa Blanca, Calpe is a picturesque seaside town that captures the heart of every traveler. With its blend of golden beaches, ancient ruins, and the awe-inspiring Peñón de Ifach rising majestically from the sea, Calpe offers a magical escape for families, couples, and solo adventurers alike.

The Peñón de Ifach: Nature’s Guardian
Dominating the skyline, the Peñón de Ifach is more than just a stunning natural landmark—it’s the soul of Calpe. This enormous limestone rock, standing 332 meters high, juts out into the Mediterranean, drawing comparisons to the famous Rock of Gibraltar. It’s also a protected natural park, home to rare flora, bird species, and panoramic hiking trails that reward climbers with breathtaking views of the coastline.
Whether you’re an avid hiker or simply love photography, a trip to the Peñón de Ifach is an unforgettable experience that connects you with nature, history, and the deep blue sea.
Beaches That Soothe the Soul
Calpe boasts over 13 kilometers of pristine coastline, where soft sands meet the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean. Playa de la Fossa and Arenal-Bol are two of the most popular beaches, perfect for sunbathing, swimming, or enjoying a family day out.

For those seeking quieter moments, hidden coves and pebbled bays offer peace and privacy. Calpe’s Blue Flag beaches guarantee clean waters and excellent facilities—ideal for creating lasting memories under the Spanish sun.
Rich History and Local Charm
Beyond the beaches, Calpe is a town steeped in history. Wander through the old town’s cobbled streets, marvel at the remains of Roman villas, or explore the Moorish quarter filled with colorful murals and artisan shops. The local fish market by the port offers a glimpse into daily life, while the traditional cuisine—especially the freshly caught seafood—is sure to delight every palate.
Family-Friendly Fun and Outdoor Adventures
Calpe is a haven for outdoor lovers. From sailing and snorkeling to cycling and rock climbing, there’s something for every age and energy level. The salt flats near the town center are home to flamingos and other birdlife, making for a perfect family outing.
The town also hosts vibrant festivals and cultural events throughout the year, offering visitors a chance to celebrate like a local and experience authentic Spanish traditions.
