Pebret beach and Russo beach are one of the few sandy beaches that exist in the Natural Park. Together
The Pebret beach, together with the Russo beach (the two are together), are the only beaches totally with fine sand that exist in the Park.
Las Vuidas beach is located next to the South Beach of Peñíscola. It is a semi-urban beach and very quiet even in summer.
The name of the beach refers to the multitude of shells that are on its shores (petxina means shell in Catalan). Normally it is a cove with a low occupancy level and the perfect place to practice diving or snorkeling.
The best time to visit is at sunset, when the sun sets and reveals a fantastic view of the Sierra de Irta and the Papa Luna castle in the background.
It is a small and quiet cove, with sun practically all day. For this reason, it is usually a quite crowded cove even in winter where it is usual to see people sunbathing.
Cala Ordi is 50 m long and has a total area of 750 m² of pebbles and gravel.
It is a very quiet cove and perfect to relax even in summer since it is always little busy. For the most part the cove is rock, except for a small piece with small pebbles and sand.
This small cove is 32 meters long and its total area is 320 m2, it is composed of fine sand.
This cove is characterized by its difficult access, which is why it becomes the right place if what you want is to spend a moment alone
The Argilaga cove is the furthest from Peñíscola and very close to the neighboring town of Alcosebre.
WHAT TO SEE IN PEÑÍSCOLA
THE CASTLE OF PEÑÍSCOLA
The Templar-Pontifical Castle of Peñíscola is the completely walled fortress that occupies the highest part of the rock on which the ancient city of Peñíscola is located. Construction began in 1294 and was finished 12 years later, in 1307 by the Knights Templar
ARTILLERIA PARK
It is a botanical park with gardens made up of palm trees, olive trees, lavender and native flora of the Sierra de Irta Natural Park. As they told us in this idyllic place civil weddings are celebrated, I do not think it is a bad place to get married.
THE LIGHTHOUSE OF PEÑÍSCOLA
It is located in the lower part of the Castle. It was built in 1892 and its light signal reaches a distance of 65 km.
You cannot visit the interior, but you can take beautiful photos from the esplanade where it is located.
TICKETS TO THE OLD TOWN
The old town has several entrances of different architecture and construction:
The most important entrance would be the Portal Fosc, in the Renaissance style. It was the main entrance until the s. XVIII. On the main door of Portal Fosc we can still see a commemorative shield of Felipe II.
The Gate of Sant Pere
ordered to be built by Pope Luna in the 15th century, it provided the city with a new access by sea, creating a jetty that functioned until the 18th century. Currently, and due to the new seaport of the city, it is accessed by land. In the portal is the coat of arms of Papa Luna.
THE BUFFER
It is a geological curiosity that consists of a natural tunnel excavated in the rock where the city sits, and through which the waters of the Mediterranean continually enter and leave, causing thunderous snorts and violent rises of the sea water on days of storms.
There are bars with terraces near the Bufador, making it a nice place to have a drink.
THE ERMITORY OF LA MARE DE DÉU D'ERMITANA
It is located next to the castle and houses the image of the patron saint of the city. It was built by Governor Don Sancho de Echevarría between 1708 and 1714.
