Tourism and heritage sites in Alicante

Overview

Tourism in the Alicante region focuses on diverse cultural and natural heritage sites. In the Marina Baixa area, the fortified village of Guadalest is recognized for its medieval architecture, the 11th-century Castillo de San José, and its high density of museums. Nearby, natural attractions such as the Cueva de los Peces near Cala Moraig offer maritime exploration via swimming or kayaking.

In the Vega Baja del Segura region, the town of Rojales emphasizes its subterranean history through the Cuevas del Rodeo. These former rock-excavated homes, once used to replace unstable structures, have been converted into the Municipal Ecomuseum of the Subterranean Habitat, serving as workshops and exhibition spaces.
