Orpesa sits on the Mediterranean coast in Spain’s Valencian Community, where the Sierra de Oropesa descends toward the Costa del Azahar. Also known in Spanish as Oropesa del Mar, the town combines a seafront of sandy beaches with an older centre set back from the shore. Ruins of its castle occupy a rise above the historic streets, while the Torre del Rey, a 16th-century coastal watchtower, recalls the defences once maintained against seaborne raids. The Vía Verde del Mar follows a disused railway corridor toward Benicàssim, passing cliffs and coves along the shoreline.
