Negative experience: Artificial sand with access rules that are more determined to collect revenue. They should allow pets access outside of bathing season.

Fantastic experience: Plage propre et tellement longue et large qu'il y a de l'espace pour tout le monde. Le prix du transat avec parasil est entre 6 et 8€ szlon la zone et la plupart permettent de commander à manger pour manger directement sur la plage. L'accessibilite pour les personnes a mobilité réduite est optimisée à certains endroits cela mérite d'etre souligné, Bravo !

Fantastic experience: Prachtig en zeer verzorgd strand. Lekker breed en niet te druk. Er zijn voldoende eet en drinkgelegenheden in de buurt. Ook voldoende boetieks voor bijvoorbeeld strandklleding of souvenirs. Parkeren kan ik niet beoordelen. Het is geheel een gratis zandstrand en je kunt tegen betaling bedjes met parasol huren. Er zijn douches op het strand.

Fantastic experience: Good place to spend the day, restaurants and patisseries all over to accommodate for any taste. Sardines 'braai-ing' over open fires also a crowd favourite, definitely with traditional flair.

Fantastic experience: I'm not sure what part of fuengirola beach this applies to as it's nearly 7km long! But the quality of the beach, the sand, the lifeguards, the facilities are all excellent. You can usually find a parking spot too, ( unless it's a summer weekend) well served by chiringuitos, many who offer a sunbed service with drinks bought to you. Come in early morning for a walk in along the sand with your feet in the sea.

Paul Deamer / Author and Writer 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great beach. Clean and well maintained by the council. Excellent "paseo marítimo" with bars, restaurants, shops and beach bars. The beaches stretch both east and west from the delightful port of Fuengirola. There are lifeguards positioned along the entire beach. Parking in the high season can be an issue at the weekends but eventually a parking space will appear. There are a couple of underground parking spaces available as well where there is usually space. I fully recommend. The Ayuntamiento has made a magnificent effort in the area.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach. The beaches of Fuengirola are generally very clean and not overcrowded. The sea is generally calm, the flag was green (which means it is safe to swim) during our stay.

Fantastic experience: Duża szeroka plaża, która ciągnie się wzdłuż promenady. Można wypożyczyć leżaki. W koło pełno knajpek i restauracji. Jest też dużo toalet. Miejsce na plaży dla niepełnosprawnych, podnośnik i specjalny wózek plażowy W porcie lunapark otwarty do późnych godzin. W porcie można skorzystać z atrakcji przeznaczonych do zabawy na wodzie - skutery, lot na spadku za łodzią... Na wodzie są także ulokowane dmuchane zjeżdżalnie. Można wypożyczyć rower wodny, kajak,.albo supa. Więc każdy coś dla siebie znajdzie.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful beach, clean and comfortable, many nice restaurants, bars, coffee-shops on the beach.And shops where you buy the beach-essentials (clothes, chairs, umbrellas, balls and other sport-equipment, sand-toys for the children) just off the beach. So -what are you waiting for? Go there!
