I had a great time in Sevilla and I was so glad that I decided to take the train for an hour to get to the beach. The sand was unbelievably soft and it was amazing to find that most of the beach was empty. I'm so used to beaches being so crowded, but luckily, people didn't start showing up until later in the day, so we had the entire beach to ourselves for a few hours!

I had an amazing time at the beach. The amenities were satisfactory and it was just a short walk away. We visited it while on our cruise and it was a great way to cool down on a scorching hot day. We walked from the port to the beach and then stopped for lunch on our way back to the city center.

The beach had an endless stretch of clean sand, with its golden hue glistening in the December sun and a bright blue sky above. It was a peaceful afternoon, and the perfect place to spend some time in the sun.
