Enjoy Benicasim
Welcome to Benicasim , a privileged corner of the Mediterranean where sun, beach, gastronomy and relaxation come together . Here we show you the key places and perfect plans for a peaceful, comfortable and very enjoyable stay.
Voramar Beach The jewel next to the hotel
Located 500 metres from our hotel, Voramar Beach is the ideal starting point for discovering Benicasim.
Voramar Beach stands out for its fine sand, exclusive atmosphere and privileged location next to the promenade. It is perfect for swimming, sunbathing and strolling along the seashore.
The promenade is surrounded by vegetation, palm trees and the emblematic Ruta de las Villas, vestiges of the splendour of the Belle Époque.
It has convenient services, beach bars and terraces where you can enjoy a drink at sunset or an aperitif with sea views.
Thanks to its proximity to the Hotel Vista Alegre, it is ideal for making the most of every moment of relaxation.
Other beaches Variety without leaving Benicasim
To complement your beach holiday, Benicasim offers several options that provide variety without having to leave the town.
Playa Torre Sant Vicent
A wider beach with good access and a quiet promenade. The historic 16th-century watchtower stands out in this area, adding character and scenery.
Playa dels Terrers
With a more relaxed and spacious atmosphere, it is perfect for sunbathing or relaxing without rushing. Suitable for long siestas or chatting on the sand with a cold drink.
Playa Heliópolis
The longest beach in the town, just a 10-minute drive away. A good choice if you fancy walking on the sand, enjoying wide horizons and choosing a less crowded spot.
Benicasim town centre Shops, gastronomy and tranquillity
The town centre of Benicasim is very close to the Vista Alegre hotel, allowing you to simply "stroll and discover" every day.
Tree-lined streets, outdoor terraces and charming cafés for a leisurely break.
Local shops where you can find crafts, fashion and local products.
Restaurants that combine Mediterranean cuisine with local flavours: rice dishes, fresh fish, garden produce and Valencian wines.
Vía Verde del Mar Nature and views of the Mediterranean
One of the great attractions of the area is the Vía Verde del Mar, an easily accessible route that allows you to enjoy the natural environment and the sea in a different way.
It is an old railway line that has been converted into a walking/cycling path between Benicasim and Oropesa (approximately 6 km). Along the way, there are views of the sea, pine forests and viewpoints.
You can enjoy activities such as walking, light cycling, stopping at small hidden coves or simply sitting and contemplating the seascape.
