Punta de La Escaleta is is high (70 m), and carries a steep tower.
From this point, the chain of cliffs called "Sierra Helada" or "rocks Arabi" extends to the NE over a length of 3.5 NM. These reddish cliffs, which rise up to 190 m, are overlooking the sea and a gentle slope outwards.
Two islands, at the foot of the cliffs, are difficult to distinguish.

La pointe de La Escaleta est élevée (70 m), escarpée et porte une tour.
A partir de cette pointe, la chaîne de hautes falaises nommées "sierra Helada" ou "rochers de Arabi" s'étend vers le NE sur une longueur de 3,5 MN. Ces falaises de couleur rougeâtre, qui s'élèvent jusqu'à 190 m, sont à pic sur la mer et en pente douce vers l'extérieur.
Deux îlots, au pied des falaises, sont difficiles à distinguer.
Ensenada de Benidorm lies between Cabezo del Tosal and Punta de la Escaleta, 3 miles E. the small hill Canfali, which forms a promontory in the center of the cove of Benidorm, divides the coast into two splendid sandy beaches, the Levant and the Ponant.
Algar de la Almadraba, centered about 6 miles NW of Denia, is an extensive area of foul ground which lies off this stretch of coast. This area has depths of 25 to 36m and heavy seas are raised over it by onshore winds.
Islote Mediana (Isla Mitjana) lies close inshore, 1.5 miles NE of Punta de la Escaleta. It usually cannot be distinguished against the cliffs, except from a short distance.
The small harbour of Benidorm offers many nautic activities and an sailing school. It is designed for small boat.T. 965853067F. 965866563M. cnauticobenidorm@ctv.es150 pl.Draugh: 2,4 m, 4 m at the tip S of the port
