What can you expect at La Ermita beach in Santa Pola?

This natural beach is around 280 metres long and 26 metres wide, making it a good choice if you want to get away from the busier parts of the coast. It is situated opposite the Virgen del Rosario Hermitage, which marks the boundary of the municipality.

In the rocky face of the cape, just behind the hermitage, you’ll find the Cueva de las Arañas, a cave known for its prehistoric painting of a horse. This work forms part of the Rock Art of the Mediterranean Basin, which is recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The beach also has essential services for visitors, including lifeguards, rescue assistance and first aid.
