Cueva Tallada & Dénia

The Carved Cave (Cueva Tallada) is a patrimonial jewel with breathtaking views inside the sea. It is an excursion in the Valencian community that you cannot miss!

The cave was excavated on the level of the sea. In the beginning of times it was used to extract tosca or grit for the construction of the most singular buildings of Denia, including the castle. The views are spectacular. The possibility of taking a bath at the end of the route means that, despite the heat, it is recommendable to do this excursion also in Summer.

Cave: About 75 meters wide and 15 meters high, this cave is spectacular. The sea is intensely blue and transparent, which makes the best place to snorkel. The cave has 5 entrances through which the sea enters, forming small pools of cold water as it does not receive the sun’s rays. Inside the cave you can go through the quarry and check the shapes that were left after the extraction of the stone. From the outside, you have a spectacular landscape. If the sea is calm you can enjoy the snorkel, seeing a great variety of fish. Hiking Route: The route is one hour each way plus the time in the cave. The route is beautiful, bordering the sea to the cave, with unbeatable views of the Mediterranean.
