Ifach Rock

Photograph fascinating geological formations, spot varied wildlife and look out at a chain of scenic bays from the top of an emblematic rock.

Why not spend a lazy afternoon at Cala el Racó during your trip to Calpe? Stroll along the area's waterfront or simply enjoy its seafood restaurants.

The unmissable Peñón de Ifach headland rises above a bay of soft golden sand to create one of the quintessential images of Calpe.

With sublime views and access to ancient Roman ruins, this small bay is a fun place to hang out in Calpe.

See the remains of a village, thermal baths and fish ponds established 2,000 years ago by Calpe’s former Roman inhabitants.

From swimming in mild waters to enjoying views of Calpe Rock and visiting historical monuments, there’s plenty to see and do at this central beach.
