Finestrat
What's it like?
Berber pirates once used to attack Mediterranean coasts, burning houses and taking prisoners. This historical fact, together with the impressive nearby Puig Campana massif, gives the tranquil little town of Finestrat - which describes itself as representing both sea and mountain - a unique character. Today it successfully combines agriculture with the service and tourism sectors. It has preserved all the traditional features of a Mediterranean town, and relaxing walks can be enjoyed in the area around the church.

Don't miss
- Terra Mítica theme park, just five minutes drive away. As large as Disneyworld Paris, but with much better weather. Run by Hollywood's Paramount Studios, who are spending a further 90 million dollars extending it, the park is tipped as the biggest and most exciting attraction in Europe.
