The best beaches on the Tropical Coast of Granada 🏖️

We tell you about the best beaches on the Costa Tropical, divided into three municipalities: Salobreña, Motril and Almuñecar.

Horseshoe Beach

Almuñécar

It would be the best option in times of Coronavirus, it is 2.050 meters long and more than 40 meters wide. The waves are very soft so it becomes suitable for boys and girls. It has access walkways to the beach, a play area for the little ones and sports water activities for adults too.

Cantarriján Naturist Beach

Almuñécar

Cala naturist, cliff and virgin, it is a beach of small stones but they do not bother. Clean and transparent. Very close to La Herradura (12km).

Rijana Beach

Castel de Ferro, Motril

One of the most beautiful in Granada, it is beautiful and an oasis of tranquility, clean and with perfect crystal clear waters to snorkel. There is a car park next to the road (even on the most crowded days you can park), you have to be careful that you may miss it in a brief oversight, then you have to walk about 2 minutes through a tunnel.

Jewel Beach

Torrenueva, Motril

It is peculiar and little exploited, with very few people. Formerly this beach was naturist and nudist, although today there is a fairly mixed atmosphere. Just as you enter there is a descent of very steep stairs and it can give you vertigo, the worst thing is not going down them but going up them, but it is very worth it, it is not recommended to go with babies or infants and much less with their respective carts. It has a mixture of sand and very dark stones, an umbrella is recommended. Pets are not allowed but there are always pets and there is no problem.

Beach next to the port of Motril, is the pet beach. It is very extensive, there is space for everyone and you can keep a safe distance.

Cabria Beach

Salobreña

This beach falls in love, it has it all. It is not advisable to go on Saturdays or Sundays because there is no room for a pin, the rest of the week is a joy and especially the sandy area at the end, crossing a wooden corridor in perfect condition. Is ideal for families with a strollerWe also recommend an umbrella because of the darkness of the sand, it can burn. If you prefer to stay at the beginning of this beach, we recommend, without a doubt, the Titoyayo beach bar, eats wonderfully and is not expensive.

If you go to the Tropical Coast of Granada on vacation and want an alternative plan to "Sun and Beach" you can go to the city center of the province of Granada and make a guided visit to the Alhambra or take a walk around Albaicin and Sacromonte, at sunset, considered the best in Spain and one of the best in the world.
