From Benidorm: Cala del Moraig Beach Trip & Optional Hiking

Leave the city behind and treat yourself to a day of pure natural beauty at Cala del Moraig, one of the most stunning and secluded beaches in Spain. Located near the town of Moraira on the Costa Blanca, this rocky cove is surrounded by dramatic cliffs over 200 meters high and offers crystal-clear turquoise waters – perfect for swimming, snorkeling, or simply relaxing under the sun.

After departing from Benidorm, you will arrive at Cala del Moraig, where untouched nature and breathtaking scenery await. Take your time to explore the iconic Cave of the Arches (Cova dels Arcs) – a unique natural rock formation where the Mediterranean Sea flows through majestic stone arches. This spot is a favorite among photographers and nature lovers for its dramatic beauty.

If you are feeling adventurous, you can join an optional hike along a scenic coastal path. This route is approximately 3 kilometers each way and offers impressive views over the cliffs and the sea. The trail leads to Cala Llebeig, a hidden, lesser-known cove once used by fishermen. Far from the crowds, this peaceful corner of the coast is perfect for those looking to disconnect and enjoy the tranquility of nature.

Prefer to stay at Cala del Moraig? You are welcome to continue enjoying its inviting waters, sunbathe on the rocks, or explore the surroundings at your own pace.

Whether you decide to hike or relax by the sea, this day trip offers a refreshing escape and a chance to discover some of the most unspoiled coastal landscapes in the Valencian Community. After a full day of nature, sea, and unforgettable views, you will return to Benidorm with memories that will stay with you for a long time.
