Rocky landscapes


Calpe (Alicante)

Calpe, often known as Calp, is considered one of the most popular resorts on the Costa Blanca in Spain. The fairly mild winters make the town a popular holiday destination for outdoor activities such as cycling, hiking and climbing, and the warm summers guarantee a perfect beach holiday. Calpe is most famous for the so-called Peñón de Ifach, an imposing rock in the sea that gives the resort its distinctive appearance.
Souvenir from Spain♥

Roque Bentayga, Gran Canaroa, Spain

Roque Bentayga is a rock formation on the island of Gran Canaria. Roque Bentayga is considered an archaeological monument because it contains an "almogarén" (a sanctuary built by the indigenous Guanche people).
Souvenir from Gran Canaria ♥
