Latest reviews on la Nucia's beaches

Playa el Paraiso
10 Maxwell Nguyen

This beach in Villajoyosa is undoubtedly the most stunning pebble beach. It's surprising to see that not many people come here despite its incredible beauty. The water is crystal clear and blue, completely free from any algae or litter. You might want to bring some booties, but apart from that, this beach is perfect. Additionally, the Paradis tram station is conveniently located nearby, making it a great escape from the overcrowded beaches of Benidorm and Villajoyosa.

Albir Beach

If I could give this beach more than 5 stars, I would! Its deep blue waters make it an ideal spot to take a plunge from a high cliff, and the accessibility makes it even easier to enjoy.

Platja de l'Espigo
8 Anaya

I was not a fan of the stony beach, however, the scenery was stunning.

Playa la Roda
8 Mohan Saha

Altea's beach is absolutely amazing!

Platja del Bol Nou
8 Miguelina Velazquez

This location , tucked away between towering cliffs, is a short train ride away from Alicante, and easy to find with Google Maps. The sand is a mix of both sand and stones, so it's best to wear sandals, but it's also comfortable to go without. As the cliffs surround the beach, it gets a bit darker earlier than usual when the sun sets.

Cala Baladrar
