For generations locals have known the Algar waterfalls as 'the source of health', and with a rejuvenating dip in its clear pools of cascading water, you'll discover why. Enjoy a drink at the bar at the foot of the falls or dine alfresco in peaceful picnic spots along the riverbank – it's an afternoon to use as you choose.

Although it's only 15km from Benidorm, Algar is a world away in the natural beauty stakes. With cascading waterfalls plunging into pools of pristine water, locals love to cool off with a swim here – and you will too.

Beat the heat by wading in gently or plunge in from the diving ledge – it's super refreshing. You can relax along the shaded, pine-covered banks or set up shop at one of the picnic spots. Or if you prefer, why not grab a drink from the bar at the foot of the falls or stop for a bite to eat. Whatever way you spend your afternoon, you'll be sure to enjoy an area so stunning, it's often used as a setting for both TV and film.

Coach pick up arrived early with only one more stop before going to the falls. A good uphill walk, as expected to the falls. Plenty of swimming time in all of the pools. Great afternoon had by all.

Absolutely beautiful place & well worth a visit. When we arrived we had to follow our guide up to the entrance this was really difficult due to how busy the entrance was. We got picked up at 2.55pm arrived at the waterfalls at about 4pm it was about 4.30pm before we were inside & had to be back at the coach for 6pm. This was the only disappointing thing, felt like you were rushed and constantly checking the time. Would be nice to have stayed longer. Definitely take shoes to wear in the water.

The rep was brilliant very friendly and chatty! Felt alittle rushed when we was at the waterfalls could of done with another hour

After we had picked everyone up on the tour bus we had 2 hours at the falls. What we weren't made aware of was how long it would take to walk to the falls from where we got off the coach. The walk, the amount of steps involved. We had an hour in the actually waterfall and didn't get to see them all due to the lack of time.

Didn't expect the almost sheer vertical climb to get to falls, and outdated wooden stair enjoyed the overall scenery and experience

We got picked up at 3 got there at 4. And had to be back at coach for 5.45 . Took us 20 mins for guide to show us were we were going . So left hour n 20 mins in waterfalls which was deffo not enough time .need at least 3 hours .
