The island of Benidorm is also known as the Island of Journalists and is of great ecological, scenic and environmental interest.
It is a small islet in front of the town of Benidorm, 350 metres long and 73 metres high.
You can get there by boat from the port and go up to the point, admiring the Mediterranean Sea that surrounds it and towns such as Benidorm, Finestrat and Villajoyosa.
If you like diving, this place is ideal for observing the surrounding seabed.
There are several legends about Benidorm Island, one of them is that a giant who lived on the mountain Puig Campana fell in love with a girl from Finestrat and kidnapped her, the people gathered and went to her rescue. The giant kicked the mountain in anger, breaking off a fragment that reached the sea, creating the island of Benidorm.
