Discover Benissa
Benissa is a pleasant municipality on the Costa Blanca, located on the Mediterranean coast between Moraira and Calpe.
Benissa has magnificent coves and its coastal area is characterised by its cliffs, cliffs and pine trees.
It has a very high level of biodiversity and there are many opportunities to discover nature and hiking.
In fact, it is possible to take the paseo ecológico, a long, well-preserved and developed footpath that runs along the steep coast and takes the walker to the town of Calpe. The path is lined with information panels that inform the walker about the botanical and geological characteristics of the coast.
Benissa also offers one of the most beautiful walking routes in Spain: the Sierra de Bernia. This is a mountainous area that rises to 1128 metres and covers 1900 hectares. With its head in the clouds, Bernia offers breathtaking views of the sea and the mountains.
Benissa also boasts clear water and 4 km of sandy and pebble beaches, the most popular of which is undoubtedly La Fustera, a small white sandy beach topped by the paseo ecológico and featuring a charming beach restaurant.
Its shallow coves are ideal for snorkelling and discovering the marine biodiversity of the Mediterranean coast.
As is customary throughout Spain, Benissa has many local fiestas throughout the year. The most emblematic of these is the traditional Moros y Cristianos festival, commemorating the reconquest of the Iberian Peninsula by the Spanish.
