This beach is in a beautiful spot and is great for swimming, as the shoreline slopes away quickly. It's a good idea to wear jelly shoes to protect your feet from the pebbles.
This beach in Villajoyosa is undoubtedly the most stunning pebble beach. It's surprising to see that not many people come here despite its incredible beauty. The water is crystal clear and blue, completely free from any algae or litter. You might want to bring some booties, but apart from that, this beach is perfect. Additionally, the Paradis tram station is conveniently located nearby, making it a great escape from the overcrowded beaches of Benidorm and Villajoyosa.
I just visited the beach to witness and enjoy their 15-20 minute firework displays over the course of the four days I was there from June 25th to June 29th.
Perfect spot to enjoy the sun, with plenty of shops and eateries to explore. But beware, the sand can get scorching hot in the middle of the day, so make sure you bring your flip-flops!
This lovely little beach is kept in great condition and boasts attentive lifeguards and excellent safety measures. The water is shallow and pleasantly warm, making it a perfect spot for families with kids to splash around in.
Please note that lifeguards supervise 29 beaches in the region, but you should rely on more than just them, remember the elementary rules, as lifeguards are not on duty around the clock, even on equipped beaches!
