They say there are places you never forget, places that remain untouched in your memory no matter how many summers go by. El Portet is one of those corners. A small bay in Moraira where time seems to stand still, where the sea continues to embrace the shore with the same tenderness as always, and the Peñón, unyielding, keeps greeting those who arrive barefoot.
Cove El Soyo
A small cove in the village of Altea comprising a distinctive black rock and calm waters for a sunny day by the sea, enjoying the mild climate of Spain's Eastern Mediterranean coast.

Abahana Villas - Views of the Soyo cove in Altea.
This semi-urban cove lies between the small port in the district of L’Olla and Cap Negret in Altea.
It is made up of pebbles and rocks and is some 25 metres long, with delightful views stretching from Peñón de Ifach in Calpe as far as Punta Bombarda.
In the summer season it has a Red Cross post, lifeguards, police post, car park and a few restaurants serving refreshments.
Cala El Soyo is far from busy and banks of seaweed occasionally build up, moderating the impact of the waves, all of which makes the cove a sure spot in which to find a little peace and quiet.
