Questions
Common questions
Where do you park at Platja d'Alcanada?

How far is the walk to the water at Platja d'Alcanada?
10 m in a straight line from the listing to the mapped shoreline, under a minute. Soft sand and dune make the real walk longer than the straight line.
Does Platja d'Alcanada have restrooms?

Measured from OpenStreetMap, public aerial imagery and live conditions data, and counted from visitor reviews. Every source, in full.
