Details

Enjoy a boat trip with our round-trip ferry to Tabarca Island from Santa Pola and visit the only inhabited island in the Valencian Community. The island of Tabarca is part of the Tabarca Nature Reserve and stands out for its marine biodiversity, crystal-clear waters, and history, making it a perfect destination for your day trip in Alicante. We will depart from Santa Pola on our ferry, where you can enjoy the views from the deck, observe marine life through the glass bottom, or purchase a cold drink from our onboard bar. After a 20 minutes ride, we will disembark on the island of Tabarca. Explore the old town, admire the colourful houses, or go hiking until you reach the Tabarca Lighthouse. Not far from here, you can visit the famous Platja de Tabarca, renowned for its crystal-clear waters perfect for a refreshing swim. There will also be time to discover the island's marine life by snorkeling near the breathtakingly scenic Cova del Llop Marí cave. Finally, after a day in the sun on this picturesque island, you can return to Santa Pola at the time of your choice from the same place where we disembark. We offer transfers approximately every half hour.

Yes we would recommend it provided you can get a ferry without so many schoolchildren on it ;-) The island is well worth visiting and has lots of beaches, restaurants, walks, etc. It made a nice break from Santa Pola on a very hot day ;-)
