Guide

Good to know

Designated dog area on right side
Half the beach is reserved for dogs; the left side is dog-free if you prefer to avoid them.
Ideal for young children
The water stays shallow for 15 to 40 meters out, allowing kids to wade far without getting deep.
Arrive early on weekends
The paid parking lot fills up by late morning, especially on summer weekends and busy days.
Bring your own shade and supplies
The dog area lacks showers and has minimal facilities; bring an umbrella and take everything away after.
Water quality varies by day
Reviewers report occasional murkiness, seaweed, and gasoline pollution from boats affecting visibility.

Questions

Common questions

Where do you park at Platja del Rec?
The nearest mapped parking area is 70 m from the listed location. Positions come from OpenStreetMap, not from review text.
How far is the walk to the water at Platja del Rec?
The listed location sits on the shoreline itself, so there is no walk to speak of once you are out of the car.
Does Platja del Rec have restrooms?
No restrooms are mapped within 600 m on OpenStreetMap. That means nobody has mapped any, which is not the same as there being none.

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