Alicante—Tabarca Island Ferry

At the time of your choice, you'll sail from the port of Alicante to Tabarca Island, one of the most popular locations in Costa Blanca. During the 1-hour ferry trip, you'll enjoy an underwater view of the boat (depending on availability). You may see the fish living in this biodiverse Mediterranean area.

Once you dock in Tabarca, you can explore the island at your leisure. In the afternoon, at your chosen time, you can take the ferry back to the port of Alicante on the same or a different day.

What to Do on Tabarca Island?

Tabarca is the biggest island in the Valencian Community, offering a calm environment with around 60 inhabitants. We recommend a walk through the village streets at the western end, where you’ll find the church of San Pedro and San Pablo. Visit the Museum of Nueva Tabarca, which contains various archaeological pieces from the Mediterranean.

For dining, try the rice dishes with lobster served in village restaurants. You can also walk to the eastern points of the island to see the Tabarca lighthouse.
