Discover Cova Tallada from the Sea
The Cova Tallada Kayak Tour is one of the most unforgettable experiences you can enjoy between Dénia and Jávea. Paddle beneath the spectacular cliffs of the Cabo de San Antonio Marine Reserve until you reach a sea cave where nature, history and crystal-clear waters come together in one of the Costa Blanca’s most remarkable settings.
Your adventure begins at Les Rotes Beach in Dénia, where our qualified guides will provide a short briefing covering kayaking techniques, safety procedures and the route before setting off.
After around twenty minutes of paddling along the dramatic coastline, you’ll arrive at the impressive entrance to Cova Tallada. Reaching the cave by sea makes this experience truly special, allowing you to discover one of Alicante’s most iconic natural landmarks from a unique perspective.
Explore the Interior of a Cave with Centuries of History
Once inside Cova Tallada, you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy a natural pool where you can relax and go snorkelling in the crystal-clear waters of the Cabo de San Antonio Marine Reserve, one of the Mediterranean’s most valuable protected marine areas.
The adventure continues with a guided visit inside the cave using headlamps, exploring its chambers and rock-cut galleries for approximately fifteen minutes.
Cova Tallada takes its name from the extraction of tosca stone, a type of limestone quarried here between the 12th and 14th centuries. This stone was widely used to build many historic buildings throughout the Marina Alta, making the cave a unique place where history and nature meet.
A Perfect Experience for Friends, Couples and Families
This tour is suitable for anyone with a normal level of fitness and requires no previous kayaking experience. Thanks to our stable self-draining double kayaks and the support of qualified guides throughout the activity, all you need to do is paddle, explore breathtaking scenery and enjoy the experience.
Before returning to Les Rotes, you’ll also have time to relax, recharge and take in the peaceful surroundings, bringing to a close one of the Costa Blanca’s most memorable kayak adventures.
