Expedition Costa Blanca

This Year We start from Villajoyosa heading towards Raco del Conil , but this year we'll be going to make it a loop and return back to where we started Villajoyosa.

Join us for a relaxed coastal adventure, starting and ending in Villajoyosa, as we trace a circular(ish) route along the shoreline—discovering as many hidden coves and beaches as we can along the way.

Our path will take us in the direction of the beautiful Racó del Conill, a perfect spot for a refreshing swim or even a cheeky cliff jump for those who dare. We’ll stop at a few of the best swim spots as we go, with plenty of time to take it all in.

Of course, it wouldn’t be an ECB coastal day out without a few bar stops along the way to keep us cool, hydrated, and social.

Our furthest point will be Sunset at Les Puntes del Moro, where we’ll kick off the flip-flops, relax with some food and drinks, and soak up the views before we start heading back to Villajoyosa to wrap up the loop.
