Guide
Good to know
Go for snorkeling and marine life
The seabed is teeming with life, making this one of the best snorkeling spots in Alicante.
Plan a shoreside walk or meal
A promenade offers strolling with bay views, and visitors enjoy snacks on the shore.
Visit in winter for parking
Summer parking fills quickly, but the lot has plenty of space during cooler months.
Bring water shoes for rocky bottom
The entire beach is rocky rather than sandy, so footwear protects against sharp stones.
Expect summer crowds
The cove gets noticeably busier in summer, though some find it peaceful at other times.

Does Cala de Cantalars have restrooms?
