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.
