Calpe.... just one of the many Costa Blanca
Jewels! |
The city of Calpe is a
virtually perfect combination of romantic village together with sun and beach. In between Altea to the south and Javea to the north, Calpe with its about
15 000 habitants is known for its rock, called the penon de lfach. This massive rock has been inspiring people from everywhere to come and enjoy the
superb view around the bays and the Costa Blanca. It can be reached either by the
A7 highway or the N332 national road, which I would recommend using. The national road,
the N332, really gives you the kind of holiday feeling as it leads you to Calpe along the coastline up from Alicante.
Amongst many interesting places Calpe and its neighbor town of Teulada, invites every visitor to enjoy the fishing harbor and the yacht harbor, famous for there steady wind conditions. As anyway Calpe weather is one of the mildest around the Costa Blanca, due to the close mountains which protect the village from the sometimes stronger north winds.
Sightseeing in Calpe
The two churches of Calpe are certainly worth a visit. Close to each other the Iglesia Antigua and the church Senora de las Nieves are both located in the center of Calpe. Build in the 15th century the old church had been recondition many time over the past centuries, as the city had been attacked by pirates many times.
Calpe's archeological museum can be found just opposite at the plaza de la villa shows various findings of the 4th until the 8th century. Alongside you find ruins of the romans and the ruins of the bano de la reina, together with rests of an old tower the torreon de la
peca.
If you are further interested in local culture you should visit the museo fester in Calle Jose Antoni which explains the local Calpe fiesta moros y cristianos and its traditions. The Calpe tourist information at the Avenida ejercitos espanoles (Tel. 965 83 69 20) can be reached passing
through the streets of Calpe with its shops, restaurants, bars, Calpe real estate agencies and the various Calpe car hire companies.
