The city is situated on a rocky peninsula, originally joined to the mainland only by a sandy isthmus, which was easy to defend, occasionally flooded and the isthmus was buried under the sea water. Currently, due to the construction of the harbor and the buildings on the isthmus, this curious fact has gone. On the rock stands the old town, which stands the castle of Papa Luna, Peniscola dividing the coast into two halves quite different. It has wide beaches both north and south of the peninsula the castle. The municipality of Peñíscola includes one of the most pristine coastal mountains of the Valencian coast, the Sierra de Irta, which ends in the sea in a low rocky coast and in some places, high cliffs, like the Badum.
