Getting There & Around

Tips for Visiting Tibi Dam

  • Combine a visit with a trip to nearby Alicante or the Fuentes del Algar for a fuller day in the region.
  • The dam's old masonry is fragile-stay to designated viewpoints and paths rather than attempting to walk on the historic structure.
  • Early morning or late afternoon light is best for photos; midday glare can flatten the reservoir's surface.
