Peníscola/Peñíscola's Absolute Essentials
Peníscola is defined by its 13th-century Templar castle, famously the residence of Antipope Benedict XIII. The medieval old town sits on a rocky peninsula connected to the mainland by a narrow strip of sand. Key sites include the Bufador, a natural rock tunnel where seawater sprays through, and the Sierra d'Irta Natural Park, which houses the Torre Badum watchtower and secluded beaches like Platja del Russo. The coastline features the expansive Platja Nord and the historic parish church of Mare de Déu del Socors.

Best Beaches
Peñíscola’s coastline features a contrast between the five-kilometer urban stretch of Platja Nord and the rugged, protected landscapes of the Sierra d’Irta Natural Park. The northern area offers wide sandy beaches with views of the 14th-century Templar castle. To the south, the terrain transitions into a series of secluded pebble coves and fine-sand beaches like Platja del Russo and Pebret, accessible via coastal trails and offering a remote experience within one of the Mediterranean’s last undeveloped coastal ranges.
