Fantastic experience: Real surfers beach. Good waves. Lots of parking places (not free). Lots of bars, mostly with live music and food. Shopping and surfboard rental.

Destinos Pasajeros 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Along with Bolonia, the best beach from my point of view on the Cádiz coast. If the Levante wind is not blowing, it can offer an unforgettable day due to the color of its water and its lack of urbanization. There are numerous paid parking lots in the same private plots. Likewise, there are several beach bars and establishments on the other side of the road where you can eat, have a drink, or enjoy the beautiful sunsets.

Positive experience: Wonderful place .... but..... the cleanliness.... the fact that dogs can access the whole beach seems very unhygienic to me.... I found feces in places where we usually set up.... access should be limited or areas of the beach designated for dogs.... also.... many cigarette butts .... smokers should be more aware.... the same should be done with campaigns ... and one last thing.... showers to wash off the sand.... in the end, these are basic things.... blue flag beaches take care of these things

Negative experience: En uno de los accesos más frecuentes a la playa El Palmar en confluencia con la carretera de La Playa y el camino de Los Atravesados hay un punto de recogida de basura en un estado LAMENTABLE Los cubos medio rotos y sin tapa lo que provoca que la basura se extienda por la dehesa zona endémica de El Palmar. Hay escombros alrededor y una pequeña zona quemada. NO HAY CONTENEDORES PARA EL PLÁSTICO NI PAPEL. Esto demuestra una DESIDIA Y DEJADEZ por del ayuntamiento de Vejer y su sr. Alcalde lo que perjudica a la vida diaria de los vecinos y turistas a parte de la mala imagen que se proyecta de la zona.

Positive experience: Me sobran cosas en esta playa ...colillas...basura...badenes....perros dejando regalitos.... Y me faltan otras...dunas protegidas...duchas....limpieza en muchos rincones....

Fantastic experience: Schönster Strand in dieser Gegend. Wenig bis kein Tourismus. Gut zum surfen. Hunde sind erlaubt. Cafés sowie Restaurants sind in der Nähe. Parkplätze gibt es auch direkt am Strand. Hier läuft alles etwas ruhiger ab, weshalb man hier gut entspannen und den Surfen zusehen kann.

Sara DV 8 months ago

Positive experience: Playa bonita una pena ciertos usuarios que son muy ruidosos, sobre todo sus hijos los cuales son molestos y dejan mucha suciedad sin que los padres se hagan responsables (de la suciedad y sus gritos). Uno no puede estar tranquilo con su mascota . Deberían de tomar ejemplo y cambiar el cartel de prohibido perros en las playas por prohibido personas maleducadas. Que tomen ejemplo de las personas y sus mascotas que van sin molestar ni ensuciar nada.

Sus Fernández 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: Sin duda, juntos a la barrosa, la mejor playa de España, perros permitidos, es extensa y ancha, la playa más grande de Cádiz y se está agustisimo, a todos os la recomiendo un montón, sobretodo si tenéis perrete. La mejor playa.

Fantastic experience: One of the most well-known beaches in Cádiz, belonging to Vejer de la Frontera (although it is quite far from the village itself, you have to go by car). From Conil we have walked there a few times, the hike is manageable. White and fine sand, with a lot of light and fresh water, like a good Atlantic beach; the sunsets are the best thing about this beach, with some beautiful scenes. In the area, there are loads of bars and restaurants to grab a drink or to eat; especially in summer, of course, when there are many more people around.

Positive experience: Beach with very little incline, which makes the tide advance many meters; the sunset at low tide must look amazing. There is a lot of wildlife in the area, especially in the afternoon. There is a clothing market and restaurants, it just lacks showers and public restrooms.

Negative experience: Overrated, there are a thousand better beaches in Cádiz than this one. A lot of surf culture, and beach bars wherever you look, extremely crowded. The grass is burned and the wood is worn out, so it has little attractiveness. If you have the opportunity and you are driving, take a few more minutes and go to other beaches or coves.

Fantastic experience: The beach is beautiful but the maintenance of the wooden walkways and infrastructure is terrible. We had an accident and we haven't been able to report it, lack of time and the scare. It's a shame that such a lovely beach is in those conditions. Zero access for disabled people and I didn't see a lifeguard in 4 days.

Fantastic experience: Playa amplia, grande y espaciosa, arenas blancas y aguas cristalinas. Mucha zona de escuelas de surf delimitada, también es una playa bastante familiar, bares y chiringuitos cerca y puesto de la Cruz roja con socorristas en verano. Demasiada gente en julio y agosto.

Fantastic experience: Una de las grandes maravillas que tiene Cádiz, El Palmar, pese a ser un espacio rural, es una de las playas que más me gustan por su tamaño. Tienes una gran variedad de zonas de Kite Surf o donde alquilar las tablas o empezar con unas clases de surf. Los bares cerca de la playa están muy bien ya que todos tienen sus terrazas con vista a la playa. La zona para aparcar no esta mal, aunque cuidado que te pueden multar aún siendo camino.

Lucía De La Torre Gutiérrez 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Playa amplia, larga.. kilométrica, que une el Municipio de Conil con Vejer, de arena fina y suave. Cuando baja la marea deja un espacio de arena.mojads perfecto para caminar. Tiene varias escuelas de surf en la orilla y chiringuitos para todos los gustos (no en la arena). Los hay incluso abiertos todo el año (El Cartero). En días despejados de ve África perfectamente. Tiene zonas de parking gratuito (muy pocas plazas) y múltiples.opciones de parking de pago 2-3€/día. Pasan vendedores ambulantes ofreciendo desde pareos, gafas, ropa, bolsos, hasta camarones, bebida y pasteles... Una de las mejores puestas de sol del Mundo se puede disfrutar desde esta playa. Por favor, sería de agradecer que todo aquel que le venga a disfrutar, se lleve su basura.. el plástico es un problema generalizado, pero las colillas.no se las comen las gaviotas ni los peces ... Así que esconderlas debajo de un poquito de arena no soluciona nada. También sería de agradecer que todos aquellos que coman pipas en la playa, no tiraran los cascos a la arena.. son hábitos a cambiar que sería de agradecer..

Fantastic experience: Una excelente playa, extensa y muy poco urbanizada, casi en estado virgen, que se caracteriza por amplias dunas en la zona comprendida entre torre nueva (torre vigía del Palmar) y el limite territorial con Conil. Muy concurrida por surfistas y por familias. Excelente calidad de arena y limpias aguas. Servicios básicos de socorrismo en torre nueva y la zona más poblada. Diversos bares y restaurantes en línea de costa.

Se puede comer con diversos establecimientos con diferentes ofertas. Escuelas de surf y mercados de artesanía. Difícil aparcamiento aunque hay muchos parking de pago

Fantastic experience: Despite all the people going to this beach, it is so big that you don't feel crowded. I positioned myself under the lighthouse and we had a great time. The bar area is very well equipped for all environments. Although everything is a bit expensive. The best sunsets in El Palmar.

Sofia R.Ferrario 1 year ago

Positive experience: Super for surfing, walking, chilling. Spectacular sunsets. The dunes are a nature reserve and you should only walk down to the beach via the wooden bridges and paths, but too many people do not adhere to this and there are no controls. Big plus: Surf schools are also open in winter. Bars, restaurants, and shops along the promenade are open as well. Finding a parking spot can be difficult on weekends, sometimes too busy, but there are paid parking lots for €3-4 per day. Overall, the beach unfortunately seems to be becoming more touristy, the original atmosphere is gradually being lost.

Negative experience: I love the Palmar beach, but I give a low rating because of the poor management by the town hall and the trash; there are no bins or trash cans, and there's no service, so the garbage ends up piled up anywhere and the wind causes it to be thrown around (also, we humans should be cleaner and the cigarette butts...). I give a zero to the town hall and their service and garbage collection, which is non-existent, and I give 5 stars to the beach, which is spectacular.

Is it the weather? I don't know, those wooden bars, pubs, and that surfer style. It still has a nightlife even in December. From El Palmar to Levante is beautiful. I've been coming for many years, and except for the fact that everyone has started coming in summer, the rest of the year is simply wonderful.

Fantastic experience: I love this place. It is one of the widest beaches I know. Beautiful outside of the season. In summer, very crowded; I always recommend a more secluded beach. The town hall should keep the bins all year round since in spring, autumn, and winter there are also many people who visit this place and others who live there.

Positive experience: One of the best beaches in Spain to go with the kids. The only thing to keep in mind is the sea currents and the price of housing and the supply of drinking water.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach and popular place for surf lovers all year round. There you can find lots of surf schools, restaurants and shops especially during the summer months. We go all year and sometimes (after the summer season) we take our dog.

Fantastic experience: Spectacular beach to watch the sunset. In October, we had no problems being with the dog on the beach; there were plenty of people. Incredible surf area. Highly recommended.

Positive experience: This is a place where young and old come together, well, at least they are in the vicinity of each other. Freedom and happiness are showcased here in a nostalgically messy Spanish environment. The beach is infinitely long and serves for long walks of reflection. There isn’t too much control here as there is in the Netherlands, which is delightful. It is mainly for this reason that I prefer this place; here you can still be a colorful person who can be seen, unlike the dreary existence as a number in the Netherlands. From here, you can walk to Conil or southwards to Faro and even further to Los Caños de Meca. Public transport doesn’t really run regularly, so a scooter is ideal here. Definitely do not rent a car to get here because then you won’t experience the authentic old-fashioned Spanish atmosphere, and that would be a shame.

Positive experience: Good access to the beach and close without having to walk too much, the only downside is that there is not much parking space. The restaurants are good and almost all are at the same price.

Fantastic experience: My beach 30 years ago. It's a shame that the rest of the world doesn't know it's mine and every summer it gets filled with people to the point where I'm going to have to fence it off completely to enjoy it like we did 30 years ago when we parked my van on the dune in front of Casa Juan and spent practically 2 months there almost alone. But now, despite having to ask for permission to lay my towel in August and being surrounded by rich kids with huge BMWs everywhere, the old-timers still find corners where life remains wonderful and we enjoy the place. It's becoming harder to find them, but they are still out there. And against those sunsets, the crowds won't be able to do anything, thank you, my God.

Fantastic experience: We spent a weekend in Vejer de la Frontera, we were at the EL PALMAR beach and it was great, very peaceful for spending the day with kids at the beach. The only thing I didn't like is that there were no public showers and to wash off the sand we had to pay to use some showers.

Fantastic experience: The beach is beautiful but the maintenance of the wooden walkways and infrastructure is terrible. We had an accident and we haven't been able to report it, lack of time and the scare. It's a shame that such a lovely beach is in those conditions. Zero access for disabled people and I didn't see a lifeguard in 4 days.
