Cap Sant Antoni is located between Jávea and Dénia, in Montgó Nature Park. This spectacular cliff was recognised as a protected area in 1993.
The restrictions in motor boating and relentless tourist exploitation since 1993 have resulted in a rapid regeneration of flora and fauna. Nowadays, this hidden spot boasts lush marine vegetation and fauna, including posidonias, octopuses and gilt-head breams. The San Antoni cape is 20 m deep.
From the top of the cliff -about 150 metres above sea level- you can have fantastic views of Ibiza and the Valencia Gulf. The lighthouse is a reminder of the times when the cape was a viewpoint to spot pirates. This place also housed a hermitage that gave Sant Antoni its name.
The views from the summit of the Montgó towards the bay of Jávea are impressive, they are stunning views of the entire Marina Alta.
The Montgo was declared a Natural Park in 1987 and there are several marked trails follow across this natural landscape.
The photo shows a view of Jávea, an incredible panoramic view that one must see in person, but in order to do so one has to take the path that leads to the top. The Town Hall of Jávea organizes free guided tours to the top of Montgó.
Make sure you don´t forget the camera as you will definitely want to take home a souvenir of these magnificent views that stretch all the way to the island of Ibiza, and across to Cabo de San Antonio and to Cap Prim.
