The beach was far from ideal - a dirty, rocky shoreline in a heavily commercialized area. It's not somewhere I'd ever want to visit again.
Playa de Velilla

I absolutely adore Almuñécar - it's such an incredible place with friendly locals and plenty of shops to keep you content and your fridge stocked. During the summer, there are many bars along the beach, however, that number dwindles during the winter months.

Refreshing service in Spain was exceptional. Beers were priced at 2.20 each. A single small tapa of mixed nuts was provided. The location was right on the beach. We did not sample any of the food offerings.

This spot was really nice and clean, with pebbles and crystal clear water. Even though the car park was full, there were plenty of other places to park just off the road at the top. There was a minibus that could take you down and back for a small fee, or you could walk which took us 18 minutes at a slow pace. Coming back took us exactly 30 minutes, and we were carrying a small tent and beach stuff. We ate at the far side restaurant which was good. Best of all, the beach has public free entry, so you don't have to worry about paying for entry. Unfortunately, there are no public facilities such as showers or toilets, but all in all, it was a nice quiet day.

The beach was massive, but the sand was dark and dirty-looking. It seemed like the area near the road had been flooded, which might explain why I wasn't too impressed with the surroundings. So, we decided to leave.
