Torre del Cabo de las Huertas

Torre del Cabo de las Huertas

This lighthouse tower is situated on a coastal headland in Alicante. Travelers visit this site primarily for the panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea and as a destination point for those walking along the coastline.

Getting There

The tower is located outside the city center. Visitors can reach it via local bus or by taxi. The journey typically takes 15 to 25 minutes depending on traffic and the specific starting point within the center.

Duration of Visit

Since the attraction is a scenic lookout point rather than a museum or complex, allow 30 to 60 minutes to observe the surroundings and take photographs.

When to Visit

Late afternoon is a common time to visit to see the changing light over the water. During the summer months, the area becomes crowded with tourists and locals. To avoid the strongest heat and the largest crowds, visiting during the shoulder seasons or early in the morning is recommended.

Nearby Attractions

The tower is positioned along a scenic route that can be combined with other coastal spots. Nearby locations include:

  • Cala dels Cantalars: 1.3km
  • Cabo de las Huertas: 1.8km
