Description

Off the coast of Santa Pola, Tabarca Island is the only inhabited island of its kind in the Valencian Community. This day trip from Valencia offers a way to visit it through a combination of road travel and a short sea crossing.

The journey begins with a transfer by coach to Santa Pola, where you will board a boat to the island. The crossing provides views of the open sea before reaching Tabarca, a protected area known for its clear waters and coastal landscape.

Once on the island, you will have free time to explore at your own pace. You can walk through the village, follow the coastline or find suitable spots for swimming or snorkelling, depending on the conditions.

Tabarca’s origins date back to the 18th century, when a community of Genoese settlers established themselves here under the orders of King Charles III. This background is still visible in the layout and character of the island today.

The experience leaves space to organise your time freely before returning to Valencia at the end of the day.

With the sea stretching in every direction and quiet corners beyond the main paths, the island offers a setting that encourages a slower, more attentive way of exploring.
