The village and the castle were founded by the Moors and rebuilt by the Knights Templar and transformed into a fortress-monastery, after the conquest of 1153. It's a fabulous opportunity to experience the traditional ferry across the rive Ebro. Miravet is well know for its pottery and is a good place to see the authentic crafts.

The Cova Meravelles and the Cova del Dos are the two cavities open to the public. Both are a guided walk, which last 45 minutes. In the Cova del Dos you can appreciate the historical remains of the Neolithic era and the Battle of the Ebro; in La Meravelles you will see the spectacular Eccentrics, very unusual formations. The Music Room will also give you big surprises. All the formations created with the slow dripping of the water create fantastic formations.

From L’Ampolla to the north of the Deltebro there are many interesting coves, sandy and pebbly, with showers and beach bars. The sea here is much clearer and deeper, making it ideal for snorkelling; favourites are Cala del Moro and Cala de Santa Lucia, near El Perelló.
