Beach overall scores
Playa de Fatares (Murcia) region (Costa Cálida sub-region) is located outside the Algameca Chica 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.
User reviews
"Playa de Fatares can be accessed by boat or on foot from Tentegorra, passing through the Roldan viewpoint. It is an ideal spot for those looking for a challenge, as the access is quite steep and requires good physical condition. Best of all, it has public free entry, making it a great destination for those on a budget."
Devin or Gavin
"This stunning beach is part of the most renowned hiking trails in the area, with two different paths to choose from. While it requires a bit of effort to get there, the reward of a refreshing dip in the water makes it all worthwhile. Best of all, entry is free for the public, so you can enjoy this picturesque beach without breaking the bank."
