This place is pretty good - a great spot to relax and take in some sun. The sand is soft and the atmosphere is peaceful. It's a great place to spend a day or two.

The cove may not be the best place if you're looking to surf, as it has a lot of rocks, however it is still a great spot to hang out and have fun with your friends.

A great place to relax and get away from it all. Unfortunately, it's also a great place to get sunburned and sand in places you didn't know existed. Not to mention the hordes of people who seem to think the beach is their own personal playground. All in all, it's not the most special place in the world.

A delightful stroll along the northern coast of Alicante, lower part. Path of La Albufereta. Enjoy the stunning views of the Mediterranean Sea and the nearby mountains, making it a perfect place for a peaceful and relaxing walk. Take in the fresh air and the natural beauty of the area, the perfect way to spend a day.
