There are plenty of sights to be seen here, from the ancient 15th-century church in Calpe's square, curiously tucked away inside the modern parish church, the Plaza de los Marineros; the 14th-century Peça Tower; an eclectic range of museums dedicated to comics, collectors' items... and of course the distinctive buildings designed by Ricardo Bofill, with their wonderful panoramic views of the Calpe coastline.

Three must-see castles on the Costa Blanca: The Costa Blanca is not only synonymous with idyllic beaches and coves; it also holds a fascinating history among its hills and cities. Three castles stand out as architectural and cultural gems: the Santa Bárbara Castle in Alicante, the Atalaya de Villena and the Dénia Castle. Each one belongs to a different route and tells a unique chapter of the region's past.
Agost is much more than a town on the Costa Blanca; it is a corner where art and tradition come to life. In its streets, the sound of the potter's wheel and the smell of baked clay tell stories of generations dedicated to transforming the earth into authentic artisanal jewels. Here, the visitor not only observes, but is immersed in a unique experience: from admiring pieces of contemporary design to experiencing the emotion of creating their own work in workshops guided by master potters. Agost invites you to dream, to connect with the essential and to take home a piece of their soul.
