Playa de El Pinet
10 Tommy Riggins

What a shame that this great beach in a great location with great weather is totally ruined by the continuous loud music from the beach bar. It's too bad, as it would have been perfect if it was easy to access and the music wasn't so loud.

Cala de la Lombriz
10 Josiah James

What a stunning beach! It's so easy to access, making it a perfect spot to enjoy the sun, sand, and surf.

Calas Santa Pola
8 Marlo Soul

This spot is a great for snorkeling as it is not too deep, and there are plenty of fish to discover in the deeper areas. Plus, its brown sand is a nice bonus!

Los Alcazares Playa

This place is an ideal spot for a family day out with something for everyone! 8km of seafront promenade makes it perfect for a leisurely stroll or a more energetic jog. The paving stones have helpful distance markers for those who want to track their progress. Kids will love the warm, inviting water and there are plenty of foot showers for a quick rinse afterwards.
