Calpe
Beachfront apartments under the Peñón de Ifach and villas with sea views on the hills — a sunny town with a marina and year-round life.
What makes it special
Calpe's landmark is the 332-metre Peñón de Ifach. Privately owned until the last century, it is now a nature reserve and a popular hike. The busy fishing port still holds the Fishermen's Guild fish auction, and the restaurants around it serve the day's catch.
Calpe is home to Viña Maris, the only underwater winery in the Mediterranean, the Royal Yacht Club and the Baños de la Reina. Pink flamingos live on its centuries-old salt lake. The airport and major cities are within an hour by car or train.
