Cala Moraig.

Tucked beneath the towering limestone cliffs of Benitachell, Cala Moraig is a dramatic gravel-and-pebble cove defined by its rugged Costa Blanca geography rather than resort-style amenities. The main draw here is the striking Cova dels Arcs, a natural sea cave and rock-arch formation at the edge of the cove that attracts photographers, divers, and snorkelers drawn to its deep turquoise waters and rich marine life. Reaching the beach requires descending a steep, scenic 700-meter path from the parking area above, a walk that preserves the cove's wild, secluded character. While you will find seasonal lifeguards and kayak rentals, there is no bustling promenade here—just pristine, deep waters, cliffside hiking trails, and a raw Mediterranean landscape.
