From Benidorm: Tabarca Island Day Trip with Boat Cruise

Leave Benidorm behind and discover Tabarca Island, Spain’s only permanently inhabited island and the country’s first protected marine reserve. Travel by comfortable coach from Benidorm Bus Station to Santa Pola, where you’ll have free time to explore the harbor or enjoy a coffee before boarding the boat. Cruise across the Mediterranean to Tabarca and discover its fascinating history, from Roman times and Barbary pirates to its 18th-century fortifications under King Charles III. Once on the island, enjoy several hours of free time to explore at your own pace. Wander through the historic old town, walk along the defensive walls, relax on the beaches, or swim in the crystal-clear turquoise waters. Tabarca’s protected marine reserve is famous for its clear waters and abundant marine life, making it ideal for snorkeling. Enjoy a seafood lunch, browse local shops, or explore the rocky coastline before returning by boat to Santa Pola and coach to Benidorm.
