Playa Santa Maria del Mar
8 Sami Khayyam

I had a great time in Sevilla and I was so glad that I decided to take the train for an hour to get to the beach. The sand was unbelievably soft and it was amazing to find that most of the beach was empty. I'm so used to beaches being so crowded, but luckily, people didn't start showing up until later in the day, so we had the entire beach to ourselves for a few hours!

Camposoto Beach
8 Alfreda

This spot is a great for those who want to keep their social distance - there's plenty of room to spread out. It's well-maintained and spotless, with showers and toilets for convenience. You can get there by car, with parking nearby, or take the bus. A great choice for a day of socially-distant fun.

Playa de Arcos

What an amazing artificial sandy beach! There is ample free parking available in close proximity. The water is pleasantly warm and suitable for both children and adults to enjoy. While a lifeguard was present, their attentiveness seemed lacking. Adjacent to the beach, there is a roadside kiosk where you can purchase refreshing cold drinks and ice creams. Additionally, there is a café available, although ordering may prove challenging if you have limited knowledge of basic Spanish. Not far from the café, there is a facility where you can rent kayaks, paddle boards, and other equipment. Once again, if you are not proficient in Spanish, you might encounter difficulties in obtaining what you desire. I highly recommend visiting this beach and lake!

Playa de Sancti-Petri

This beach is peaceful and secluded, featuring a charming small bay and boats. It is truly lovely!

Zahora Beach

The beach and water were passable, but the views were nothing special. The atmosphere of the town was not really worth noting either. The biggest downside was the lack of public toilets and showers, which was a huge problem given the number of people visiting this spot.

Playa La Fontanilla

The ramp and the area next to the stairs were in bad shape, but it was nice to see the wooden railings on the access stairs leading to the beautiful beach. I appreciate Conil for addressing the concerns of both its residents and tourists. Also, congratulations on the celebration of your patron saint, La Virgen de Las Virtudes.
