Come discover the only inhabited island in the Valencian Community! The island of Tabarca is located in front of the city of Alicante. Its waters are a Mediterranean Marine Reserve due to its excellent quality and the biodiversity of its flora and fauna. Its coasts housed in the past a refuge for Barbary pirates. In the 18th century, Carlos III ordered it to be fortified and a town built there to house several families of fishermen from Genoa who were captive in the Tunisian city of Tabarka. The walls that surround its urban nucleus have been declared a Historic-Artistic Site and an Asset of Cultural Interest.
