Caves of Sant Josep Day Trip

At the designated time, we will meet in front of the Oropesa del Mar Tourist Office. From there, we will drive our minibus to the Sierra Espadán Natural Park, where the municipality of Vall de Uxó is located. The Caves of Sant Josep await.

After a 50-minute drive, we will reach the Caves of Sant Josep, the most famous natural attraction in Castellón and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

We will then take a boat trip to start exploring the Vall de Uxó caves. As we sail along the longest underground river in Europe, we will discuss the main geological features of the caves while spotting stalactites and stalagmites from the boat.

We will then walk through the 250-metre (829-foot) long gallery to learn about the history of this site, which was inhabited over 15,000 years ago, evidenced by cave paintings and animal bones discovered here.

After spending 40 minutes exploring the caves, we will return to the surface and admire the surrounding area. Finally, we will hop back on the minibus and return to Oropesa del Mar, arriving approximately 5 hours later.
