Benifallet is a friendly village and has no less than five restaurants, offering Catalan cuisine for all tastes and pockets.
The house is close to Benifallet's attractive large municipal swimming pool, which opens daily from late June to early September. There is a small pool for toddlers, and a bar that serves snacks.
Fishing – the river Ebro offers some of Europe’s finest fishing and is famed for its impressive carp and huge catfish. We can help organise guided fishing tours.
Coves Meravelles – a few minutes’ drive from Benifallet these unusual caves feature extraordinary stalactite and stalagmite formations. There is also a lovely barbecue area, stone tables and a bar: ideal for a relaxed afternoon picnic.
This whole area is superb hiking country, with signposted G.R. trails through the hills and the mountains of the Els Ports natural parks and Cardó sierra and Delta. The Via Verde greenway is an old railway line, now converted into a cycling, walking and horseriding trail, and runs through some of the area’s best and most dramatic scenery.
The fascinating landscapes of the Ebro delta natural park are home to flamingos and many other species, and are ideal for birdwatching, cycling or a seafood lunch or paella, followed by a leisurely ferry ride to the mouth of the Delta and Mediterranean Sea.
