Peniscola Costa Azahar Spain

The coastal resort of Peniscola lies at the Northerly end of the Costa Azahar. Peniscola is a holiday resort frequented mostly by Spanish and French holidaymakers but the budget airline flights recently introduced to Valencia airport have made the area more accessible to visitors from the U.K. Peniscola has a long promenade lined with bars and restaurants and a good sandy beach. The old town stands on a rocky headland overlooking the sea on all sides, like a miniature island joined to the mainland by a thin strip of land jutting out into the sea. Peniscola is very historic dating back well beyond the time of the Romans. The castle on the headland featured in the 1960's film El Cid starring Charlton Heston. Peniscola old town comes to life at night and is well worth visiting. The long promenade now extends into the neighboring resort of Benicarlo. Walk to the opposite end of the promenade and choose a seafood restaurant overlooking the med as the sun is setting, an unforgettable experience.
