Beach overall scores
Genoveses Beach (Almeria) region (Almería Coast sub-region) is located outside the Cortijo de Pascual settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
The beach stretches on the sunny coast, but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.

"Playa de los Genoveses is truly stunning, with a natural park of sand dunes and hills just beyond it. Its wide and lengthy sand beach is divided into two parts; the smaller, southern part is designated as a nudist beach, while the main part is open to the public. The water is very calm and deep, making it perfect for small children to swim in. There's also great snorkelling ..."
