A bit off the coastline, about 10 km from Altea<\/a> and only 15 km from Benidorm<\/a> you find the village of Callosa de’n Sarria. Just nearby lies the impressive waterfall of Algar.<\/p>\n

The Fuentes del Algar should be on the top of your list for places to visit whilst you are around the area. Not only do they offer a sharp contrast to the normal days at the beach, but furthermore they show you a different, very quiet and even cool Spain.<\/p>\n

On one of our last visits during a hot summer months, the river still had only 18 Celsius.<\/p>\n
