3.E-Bike Coast Tour, Roman Fish Farm and Snorkeling

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 250 reviews · 3 hours · from $38

Cycle from Sun•E•Bike Alicante to Cabo de las Huertas, Cantalar, Calita, and Albufereta’s Roman fish farm. Camila, Luis, Mike, or another English or Spanish-speaking guide leads the route, supplies the e-bike and snorkel gear, and may swap swimming for a hike if weather turns.

“A brilliant day out. The team including Louis were incredible. Really accommodating and informative. As new to e biking and snorkeling as a family it was a great experience. The place is very easy to find and if you're on a cruise just twenty minute walk from the port or ten minutes from the coach drop. Value for money surpassed our expectations.”
