To accompany the fiestas calendar there are leisure options organised by the town council and the different municipal associations, and sports activities that can be practised in the municipal facilities.

• Rambling: an activity that combines exercise with a way of expanding our knowledge of history and natural spaces.

In Cabo de Oro we find “Cova de la Cendra”, a rich archaeological site from the Palaeolithic period, and the “Cova de les Rates”, declared wild fauna reserve for its population of bats.The Cabo de Oro rambling route is an enjoyable one, offering us spectacular views at its starting point of Moraira Bay, the Peñón de Ifach, L’Albir, Cumbre del Sol and the Sierra de Aitana mountains.
