Benidorm island “Isla de Benirdorm”  is a beautiful island located just 4 kilometers from the city of Benidorm, also called Isla de los Periodistas, it has a length of 350m and has an area of 7 hectares and has a high ecological and scenic interest.

The island is uninhabited but there is evidence that in ancient times the pirates used the island as a base to attack the nearby coastal towns. In 1834, some families of Benidorm temporarily housed in it, fleeing from the cholera ravaging the city, and today as there is only one building remaining, it is used to cater hikers who come here.
