Marines is a municipality in the autonomous community of Valencia, Spain, located in the interior of the province of Castellón in the same autonomous community. It is located in the hilly area of the eastern Iberian Peninsula, about 30 kilometers from the provincial capital, Castellón de la Plana. The region has a typical Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers and mild winters. With an area of about 36 square kilometers and a population of about 1,500, Marinés is dominated by a peaceful rural environment and a traditional agricultural economy, such as olive and almond cultivation.
The history of Marinés dates back to the Middle Ages, and its name may derive from the Roman or Moorish rule. The area retains historical buildings such as the 16th-century church of San Juan Bautista and hosts traditional festivals such as Holy Week and summer celebrations, reflecting the folklore of the Valencian region. Economically, in addition to agriculture, ecotourism and rural lodging have grown in recent years, attracting visitors to explore its nature trails and native cuisine.
Marinés is situated on the edge of the Espadán Natural Park, surrounded by pine forests and mountainous landscapes for hiking and nature observation. Its location, close to the coastal towns but maintaining the countryside's pristine character, makes it an ideal destination for experiencing the serenity of life in inland Spain.
