8 Melvin Flannigan

An ideal spot for a day of relaxation, with sunbeds available for €6 for 12 hours, giving you plenty of time to get a good tan or a sunburn - whichever you prefer - and it's easily accessible, making it even more convenient.

Malagueta Beach
6 Caleb Morris

There are several spots on the beach where you can rent sunbeds with umbrellas for €14 a day. The ocean is stunning, but very chilly, and the rocky incline can make it hard to get out of the sea when the tide recedes. It's a great place to spend the day, particularly in the off-season when it's much less crowded.
