A day-trip to the little island of Tabarca is a must when on holiday in Alicante. Ferries depart from Alicante and Sant Pola for the short
5-kilometre trip out to the island, which is the smallest inhabited island in Spain. It takes around one hour by ferry from Alicante to Tabarca
and the price is 20 euros per person. This is definitely paradise for lovers of diving and snorkelling. We highly recommend you to spend
there the whole day, enjoying the sun, good food with incredible view and some nice activities such as puddle surf, snorkling or diving.
