Alcossebre

Town

Alcossebre is a quieter Costa del Azahar resort of low-rise beaches and coves, and the gateway to the wild Serra d'Irta natural park.

Region: Castellón Province: Castellón, Valencian Community Type: Low-key resort Gateway to: Serra d'Irta Beaches: Sand & coves

Why visit Alcossebre

Alcossebre has stayed low-rise where much of the coast built high. Its sandy beaches and rocky coves are calm and family-friendly, and just to the south begins the Serra d'Irta natural park, a rare stretch of undeveloped, protected coast. A relaxed base for people who want the beach without the high-rises.
