Penyal d'Ifach

A view of the Natural Park of Penyal d'Ifac from Playa Puerto Blanco in Calpe on the Costa Blanca,Spain.

The Parque Natural Del Peñón de Ifach is a massive limestone outcrop that stands at 332m that emerges straight from the sea and is linked to the mainland by a detritic isthmus.

It is home to over 300 species of animals and a nesting site for seabirds and other birds,as well as being home to numerous rare plants and a number of endemic species. It is also one of the smallest nature reserves in Europe.

Well worth the effort to get to the top as well.

Thanks for taking the time to view this and other images in my photo stream,
