Before you travel to Castellon by plane - good to know!

Culturally vibrant, elegant and full of history, Castellon is a Spanish gem. It's not large, either, and cycling or walking are excellent ways to get around Castellon's attractions, which are surprisingly numerous for a medium-sized city. A cluster of beautiful 500-year old buildings cluster around the Plaza Mayor, including the Hemp Trading Hall and the City Hall, while Gurugu is an exceptional urban beach, and climbing the Fadri Belltower affords superb views. However, most visitors use Castellon as a base to visit Costa Azahar standouts. With hilltop villages like Morella, dramatic scenery in Maestrazgo and stunning coastal towns like Peniscola, the region mixes fine beaches and sightseeing in a wonderful fusion.
