Check out this spot in Calpe. Great location for kayaking, canoeing, supping and wind surfing. Calpe is a coastal town located on the northern part of the province of Alicante, in the Comunidad Valenciana. The town is characterized by its iconic rock formation known as Penyal d'Ifach, a massive limestone outcrop that rises 332 meters above sea level and stands as a nature reserve. The area around Calpe has a mix of rocky coves and sandy beaches, with crystal-clear waters backed by rugged cliffs and stunning views. Apart from the natural beauty of the coastline, the town is also surrounded by lush green mountains, olive groves, and citrus trees that provide a peaceful and scenic backdrop to the town. The mild Mediterranean weather and the picturesque landscape make Calpe a popular tourist attraction and an ideal location for outdoor activities such as hiking, climbing, swimming, and water sports.
