With this post, I have covered the last third of Calp's coastline, so if you are planning to come here for holidays (or to live), you now have a clear picture of how it looks and what you can expect...
In the beginning, I skipped just a short part of the coast with a small port and a beach that is closest to the Morro de Toix, which is a huge cliff that separates Altea and Calpe... So, we begin this "coastal tour/walk" from the Cala La Manzanera and Playa del Arenal - Bol, continued through another big sandy beach, Playa de la Fossa, Calp, to reach the last part of this great town... To be honest, I didn't like Calp (as I explained in previous posts), but after these 3 walks, I like it a lot!
I will start today's #WednedsayWalk at the point where I have finished the last one... At the end of the sandy beach *Playa de la Fossa", the next is the small beach named Playa de Calalga... As I was there around 9 AM, it was still empty, but on my way back, 2 hours later, there were maybe 8-10 people... As it is a small beach, I doubt that it's can be a lot more people there... Having a huge sandy beach on just a 3-4 minute walk, here you can see people who seek peaceful sunbathing and a natural environment...
This is the look from the other side... Behind those trees is the big sandy beach...
During the summer, some people are controlling the water quality on every beach, but as I was here a few weeks ago, the day that says the water is excellent is from last year... As there are no big ports or any industry near, I suppose that there is no reason to be different this year...
After this point, things are getting more interesting... :) After visiting this part, I fell in love with this particular "urbanization" and it would be great to live there, but... As those are all houses, situated in great locations, I suppose that most of the real estate there is, or close to a million USD, or over... So, no way... At least until HIVE doesn't go to $10... 😂
It's great that they have preserved these narrow trails on the "edge" of the cliffs as you could see in my first post from Calp... As you can see from the image, this route is around 1 km long and it goes until the Bassetes port, which is the first point of the next town municipality, Benissa...
You gotta like these "flower tunnels", and to be honest, I like them not just because they are beautiful, but also because they were providing shade as it was already very hot in the morning...
As the terrain isn't plain, there are a few stairways up and a few down...
I forgot to take a photo on my left side, where was the small backdoor of the near house... So, if you live there, you got up in the morning, and you have a "private beach" on your doorstep! It's not literally private, but not many people know that this beach exist at all!
But still, you always have some pricks who like to destroy useful things like this billboard with information about the beach... It is called Cala del Mallorqui, it is only 80m long, and suitable for snorkeling and fishing...
As this beach is "semi-wild", you have to be cautious with rocks and that's why they put these yellow barriers that you can see in this photo... But, that doesn't mean that every day a rock falls from the cliff... lol... Speaking of wild beaches, which one do you like more... Sandy beaches that are overcrowded, but cleaned and "maintained" or wild beaches that are 100% natural? My vote is always the second choice!
This part isn't a beach, but it is possible to go closer to the water and I think that I was some fisherman on the way back...
A beautifully built wall for those who like this type of architecture... I suppose that they deliberately leave spaces between blocks to avoid additional water pressure after the rains...
Backyard door that leads to paradise... hehehe...
This part looks great from above, but it's very hard to go down without hiking equipment... It is surrounded by high cliffs from both sides, but I suppose that people are coming here, from the sea, by boats...
And here we are, at the end of our today's walk (in one direction, still have to go back 😃)... The small 100m beach named Cala les Bassetes...
The same billboard we saw on the other side of the route... Luckily, this one is new and readable... I hope it will stay like that...
As I have seen, this port is mostly used for water sports... People were preparing for diving...
I had to take a photo of this abandoned house (at least I think it is abandoned, but I could be wrong)... This garage door is 3 meters from the sea, so I have no idea why it is there at all... The only reasonable answer would be that the sea level was lower in the past and there were places to go there by car... Today, you can go there only on foot, and I suppose in the case of bad weather, you can't get there at all, as of the big waves...
It's time to go back and the last photo of my "dream house" (fingers crossed for HIVE at $10, or maybe more! 😃)... For this one, I think I would need to see HIVE at $100 and not just $10... 🤣
Calp was a small fishing village in the past, but in the last 40-50 years it got a lot of these skyscrapers that are opposite to the rest of the photos from this walk...
After a long walk, it was time to hide in the shade and take a sip of the coffee to relax...
Thank you for your time,
