  • Review this attraction
  • As you progress to the southernmost tip of Murcia’s Costa Cálida, the terrain becomes increasingly wild and rocky. This hauntingly lovely cape is now a protected Natural Park, and home to all kinds of birds and animals, including wild boar, sea turtles, cormorants and peregrine falcons. Footpaths are traced through the scrub, and you can climb up to the summit of the cape for stunning views of the sheer cliffs and the wheeling seabirds. In the lee of the cape is a dramatic stretch of rocky inlets and coves, perfect for a dip, overlooked by a 16th-century watchtower built to defend the coast from pirates.
