Caleta-La Guardia - all beaches

This beach has a nice mix of sand and pebbles, and offers plenty of lounge rentals for 10 euros (cash only) which includes two chairs and an umbrella. Additionally, there are small beach bars where you can purchase drinks to enjoy on your lounges.

Nice

I absolutely adore Almuñécar - it's such an incredible place with friendly locals and plenty of shops to keep you content and your fridge stocked. During the summer, there are many bars along the beach, however, that number dwindles during the winter months.

This spot is definitely something special, particularly because of its promenade that leads to the next beach. I'm absolutely in love with it! It has a Chinese vibe, but unfortunately, the parking spots are limited.

The beach was massive, but the sand was dark and dirty-looking. It seemed like the area near the road had been flooded, which might explain why I wasn't too impressed with the surroundings. So, we decided to leave.

Playa Barranco de Enmedio is easily accessible and located down an unpaved road. The cove is full of thick stones, so it's important to bring water shoes to protect your feet from the waves. I love the sound of the stones and the beach is great for snorkeling. I've had the misfortune of being stung by jellyfish more than half the times I've visited, but that might just be a coincidence. There's a beach bar nearby with delicious fish and rice dishes, and the portions are a bit smaller than other places, but the service is always friendly.
