Описание: Cueva de las Calaveras: Mysterious Cave of Skulls in Dénia 💀🦴🇪🇸

Dénia is a vibrant seaside town on Spain’s Costa Blanca. It’s well-known for its sandy beaches, fresh seafood (especially the famous red shrimp) and historic Dénia Castle, which overlooks the entire city.

Dénia has a mix of Moorish, Roman and Christian history that you can see in its architecture and culture. It’s also the perfect base for day trips to hidden gems like this cave, nearby mountains, and hiking trails. The city is popular among both locals and international tourists, offering a perfect mix of culture, nature and Mediterranean vibes.

The Cueva de las Calaveras (Cave of Skulls) is located near the village of Benidoleig, about 20 minutes from Dénia. Its name comes from the discovery of over a dozen human skulls inside during the 17th century. These remains are believed to date back to the Islamic era, when Moors used the cave as a place of shelter, refuge or ritual. Some parts of the cave reach heights of 60 feet (18 meters) and it maintains a cool, damp atmosphere year-round. It’s well-lit and accessible for casual visitors, making it a great spot for travellers of all ages.

Inside, you’ll see:
✅ Dramatic stalactites and stalagmites
✅ Natural mineral walls with water streaks
✅ Pathways carved through millions of years of erosion
✅ Peaceful underground silence with echoes of history

📌 Travel Tip: Wear good walking shoes and bring a light jacket — the cave stays cool even on hot days. There’s also a picnic area nearby if you want to relax after your visit.

🎯 If you’re exploring Alicante, Dénia, or the Costa Blanca, this is a must-see natural wonder.
