This beach is beautiful and very large! The ocean water is a mix of green and blue that shimmers…read morewhen the sun hits it just right. The sand, unfortunately, is not the white pearly sand of dreams but it is still desirable enough.
We came during April, more specifically Spring Break. It wasn't crowded at all; however, it also wasn't that hot. The day was warm but the water was not. At least not enough for this 37 year old to jump in the water. If I would have jumped in, I would have jumped right back out to my Airbnb for a hot shower. My kids, however, had a great time and felt nothing as they collected cool little seashells and threw their bodies against the waves. Overall, it was a great day at a great beach close to the city center.
A few things to note: 1) bring food and drinks because I saw zero stores or shops around that offer that stuff. 2) this is Europe so be prepared to see more skin than you will at the U.S. beaches (basically there seemed to be a shortage of tops to go with all bikini bottoms out there). 3) as in all the touristy spots in Spain, an innumerable amount of guys will approach your spot asking if you'd like to buy sunglasses, blankets, towels, beer, and other junk (too bad they weren't selling those tops we spoke of earlier; they'd have made a killing).
Enjoy!
