Calpe
Calpe is a bold mix of natural beauty, history, and modern living. Dominated by the towering Peñón de Ifach, this former fishing village has grown into a vibrant coastal town with some of the most photographed beaches in Spain. Its coastline is dotted with wide sandy beaches like Playa de la Fossa and Arenal-Bol, charming promenades, and secret coves perfect for swimming or snorkeling.
The town center combines traditional Spanish character with a lively modern atmosphere — home to shops, restaurants, and a buzzing market scene. Beyond the coast, Calpe also offers salt flats with flamingos, ancient Roman ruins by the sea, and scenic hiking trails. Whether you’re here for a family holiday, to relocate, or to invest in a sea-view apartment, Calpe has something for every lifestyle.
