The Castle of Dénia, or Castillo de Dénia, rises majestically on a gentle hill in the heart of the city, dominating the cityscape even from below. From the city center or the port, the fortress appears imposing; its medieval walls and towers rise significantly above the surrounding buildings, conveying a direct impression of the structure's historical significance. Originally used as the Roman settlement "Dianium," the castle was expanded in the 10th and 11th centuries during Muslim Andalusian rule and further fortified after the Christian reconquest. Today, visitors can explore the complex, visit the entrance gate, "Portal de la Vila," and admire the various towers and walls that reflect the region's history. The castle is a particularly impressive sight from the foot of the hill, offering a powerful glimpse into both history and architecture.

On this side of Denia, there are some small beaches, but they're less accessible and have a lot of aquatic plants. (On the other side of Denia, there are large, clean beaches.)
