Guide
Good to know
Expect pebbles outside, sand inside
The shore is pebbly but the seabed transitions to soft sand, keeping sand off your clothes and belongings.
Go for peace and quiet
This beach consistently draws fewer visitors than nearby alternatives, with reviewers calling it one of the quietest in Catalonia.
Walk or cycle the scenic promenade
A long bike path and walking route run from Les Cases d'Alcanar south to Vinaròs with waterfront views.
Bring water shoes for pebbles
The beach has fine pebbles on the shore that visitors describe as sharp, with several reporting cuts on their feet.
Park only in designated areas
Parking outside marked zones or on the beach edge results in fines according to visitor reports.
