thumb|Aerial photo of Argelita and surroundings thumb|150px|Argelita's coat of arms Argelita (, ) is a municipality in the comarca of Alto Mijares, Castellón, Valencia, Spain. In 2015, it had a population of 147, located in the Alto Mijares region, next to the Argelita River or Villahermosa. Its term occupies 15.5 km2 and is 40 km from Castellón. It is located in the valley that forms the Villahermosa River and is surrounded by high mountains, as well as irrigated orchards that its inhabitants have been cultivating throughout history. Its pleasant temperature and its beautiful landscapes mean that its population increases significantly in summer.

Although registered as a predominantly Castillian-speaking municipality because it is the traditional language of the town center located on the Western river bank, the small settlements of La Laguna and La Canaleta on the Eastern river bank are traditionally Valencian-speaking.
