Castellon de la Plana is a harbour city settled in a scenic part of Costa
Azahar – usually called “The coast of blossoming oranges”. Particular shape of terrain, where mountain range prevents inland air getting around, makes growing oranges and tangerines possible all year.
Unique and mild microclimate guarantee lower temperatures in a summertime and higher in a wintertime. These are great news for Eastern European tourists who don’t like summer heat and those who simultaneously are eager for sun and warm temperatures.
The place of dreams for the “active-rest” fans is terrain surrounding
airport. Airport which is settled back-to-back to the broad, sandy beaches. Mountain range melting into the Mediterranean sea is the one of the greatest breathtaking and eye-catching, bird’s eye views. Combination of sea, beach, mountain terrains, skydiving, many fabulous views makes local touristic infrastructure very attractive.
Is there anything more you need? Even the biggest tourism opponents can’t resist. For the bicycle fans – 20 km mountain route where you got your breath taken, definitely not from the poor condition but from the astonishing landscape sights. Same mountains but with the other paths you can easily walk, having more time to contemplate on beauty of vide variety of Mediterranean plants and flowers. Sun and iodine fans will find broad beach, along which they can go by foot or ride a bike finding charming restaurants and places to rest.
Year-round drop zone SkyTime Castellon operates on site, which cooperates with Atmosfera for many years.
That drop zone is serviced by two Cessna 206 Soloy airplanes taking onboard 6 skydivers at the 4000m altitude in approximately 20 minutes. In the winter time for boogies bigger planes fly around such as Cessna 208 Grand Caravan (18 skydivers on board), Pilatus PC6, Beachcraft.
Small airplane however has the advantage of freedom of jumping whole week, every day. That combined with a spanish “Tranquilo” (meaning chill, relax) is opportunity to jump as much as you want.
