Calpe is a tourist town on the north coast of the province of Alicante, in the Marina Alta region.

Its landmark is Ifach Rock, an enormous limestone mass that rises 322 metres above the city, cutting half the coastline and entering the sea. In 1987 it was declared a natural park. It is a paradise for climbers and trekkers.

Calpe’s history goes back to the Bronze Age, when the first settlements appeared on its hills and rocks. During Romanisation, some settlements related to maritime trade and salt mining moved to the coast. The first castle, a defensive fortress, was built in the Arab period over the passage of Mascarat. Between 1240 and 1254, with the reconquest of Denia, the Christians reoccupied these lands.

In the 14th century, Calpe was fortified with additional walls to defend it from attacks by the Moors. Calpe was looted by Berber pirates in 1637, one of the most tragic events in its history: 290 people were taken prisoner and sent to Algiers. Five years later, they were released in exchange for gold and captive pirates. At that time, there were only 18 standing houses and 350 residents left inside the walled city.

In the Old Town you can find the remains of the wall and the Old Church, which currently serves as the chapel of the Parish Church and is the only example of Mudejar Gothic art in the Valencian Community. You can also visit the chapel of San Salvador, from the 18th century, and the Molino de Morelló, built in the mid-19th century. You can also see the country houses with riurau, typical of the area and used for grape cultivation. One of these is Casa Cocó, which is currently the location of the local Ethnological Museum. In the Manzanera area, you can admire the futuristic residential complex Muralla Roja (Red Wall), inspired by the Arabic kasbah and designed in the 1960s by architect Ricardo Bofill.

The climate in Calpe is temperate and warm, with average temperatures of about 20°C and 300 days of sunshine a year. The city has 14 sandy beaches and many secluded coves. In 2019, three of Calpe’s beaches (La Fossa, Cantal Roig and Arenal Bol) were awarded a Blue Flag in recognition of their quality.

The surroundings of Calpe are ideal for strolls. From El Racó beach, at the foot of Ifach Rock, extends the picturesque promenade 'Prince and Princess of Asturias'. In front of it is the fishing port, where you can attend fresh fish auctions by local fishermen from Monday to Friday at around 7 pm.

Another interesting place is the century-old Salina de Calpe, which until a few years ago was exploited as a salt industry and is now a protected wetland. In its lagoon, you can observe up to 173 different bird species, among which the common flamingo stands out.
