A Mediterranean Sea and Mountain Paradise

Alcossebre is a small coastal town bathed by Mediterranean waters and at the foot of the Serra d’Irta.

Its more than 11 km of coastline and its warm climate together with the cultural and leisure offer have made Alcossebre a quality tourist destination within the Valencian Community.

All its fine sand beaches have a blue flag as an environmental mark. Las Fuentes beach owes its name to the many freshwater springs that spring from the shore.

The union between sea and mountains creates one of the most charming landscapes on the Valencian coast. The Serra d’Irta is a virgin landscape treasure that remains intact and protected. The mountain ends just where the Mediterranean begins and this wonder forms cliffs, small virgin coves with crystal clear waters and routes worth exploring with the five senses for their flora and fauna.

Another of the great attractions of this coastal nucleus is the proximity to the Illes Columbretes, a small archipelago formed by volcanic islets located 24 miles from the coast, a protected natural area of ​​great environmental wealth, which can be reached and scuba diving with excursions that depart from the marina.

Alcossebre is, without a doubt, the perfect enclave for lovers of hiking, the Mediterranean, the warm climate and local gastronomy.
