Calpe
Calpe gained great importance during the Roman Empire due to its strategic position between the sea. The ruins of the Baths of the Queens, where fish was preserved, have been preserved.
Later, it came under the control of the Muslims and finally, in 1254, it became part of the Kingdom of Aragon.
The Peñón de Ifach is protected by the Peñón de Ifach Natural Park, which is one of the most visited parks in the Valencian Community. It serves as a refuge for unique species of birds such as gulls, gannets, Eleonora's falcon, peregrine falcon, and swift.
