St. Joseph's Caves Trip

We meet at the Benicassim Tourist Office and then travel 50 kilometers by minibus to Vall de Uxó, home to the St. Joseph's Caves. Known as Coves de Sant Josep in Valencian, this grotto is a geological gem and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The visit starts by boat, cruising 800 meters down the underground river while admiring the caves’ features. Look for rock paintings and fossils, evidence of the caves' inhabitants over 15,000 years ago.

Next, we'll walk through a 250-meter dry section of the caves, observing impressive stalactites and stalagmites. The caves maintain a constant temperature of 20ºC year-round.

After 40 minutes of exploration, we'll return to the minibus and head back to Benicassim, concluding our 4-hour and 45-minute tour.
