Fantastic experience: This is the beach we visit the most since a family member has an apartment in this area. The beach has all the services and a variety of playground areas, in addition to its accessibility for people with reduced mobility. The sand is clean, soft, and fine, the waters are clear, with a lot of green areas along the promenade, which is extensive and long. The beach is quite crowded in summer. It is the beach I frequent the most since a family member has a beachfront apartment in this area.
Positive experience: Wonderful beach near Cullera in San Antonio....very clean and equipped!!!
Positive experience: Buena playa de Cullera, una lastima que el ayuntamiento no tenga la zona más cuidada, un pueblo que vive del turismo y lo poco que invierte en mejorarlo, lo que ha sido Cullera y el camino que lleva
Positive experience: Genial. Solo que paciencia para aparcar.
Fantastic experience: Playa de arena muy fina, se extiende desde el Hotel Sicania hasta la playa de San Antonio. Accesible y con Bandera Azul. Ideal para familias con niños.

Fantastic experience: Naturally, in summer, it is very crowded; the water is very clean and blue, the services are very good, and next to the Sicania pier, it is a paradise.
Fantastic experience: Solo falta un trozo adecuado para perros, ya que es una playa muy grande
Fantastic experience: Les prohíben a los canes que vayan al Brosquil (desde 2019 está prohibido perros), y en la playa del Racó (Cullera) tampoco nos dejan pasear con los perritos. Pero luego me corto con cristales, que por supuesto un perro no ha puesto ahí. Que injusto.!! Queremos que vuelvan a permitir perros en el Brosquil!!!! Esto es vergonzoso... Solo pedimos una zona habilitada para que nuestros perros, que también tienen derecho, disfruten de la playa y el mar. Ellos ensucian mucho menos que los humanos.
Fantastic experience: Playa de arena muy fina, se extiende desde el Hotel Sicania hasta la playa de San Antonio. Accesible y con Bandera Azul. Ideal para familias con niños.
Positive experience: Es una zona muy bonita . Pero podía estar mucho mejor con muy poquito más. La arena está muy sucia y llena de trocitos de conchas rotas, lo cual molesta mucho, con pinchazos en los pies. La solución es muy sencilla, con la misma máquina que limpian toda la playa, que la pasen por aquí también, hasta la escollera del Sicania. Gracias por atendernos. Quería añadir algo a esta reseña que hice el otro día.... He visto que si pasa una máquina por la playa para alisar la arena. Pero creo que el problema no se soluciona, continúa la arena con la suciedad que tenía. Creo que sería mejor cribar la arena para limpiarla. Así se quedaría la playa limpia. Ademas de concienciar a las personas de que no es solo cuestión de limpiar mucho si no de ensuciar poco.. no siempre es culpa de los ayuntamientos. Debemos de poner todos de nuestra parte para que las cosas funcionen...

Positive experience: I spent a few days in September. The beach is nice, big and quite clean but there is absolutely nothing... not a cafeteria, not a beach bar, not a bar... a TOTAL boredom. If you want tranquility, it's okay.
Positive experience: A great beach. If it had the typical beach picnic areas, it would be extraordinary. There are fewer and fewer beach restaurants. It seems that the closures are due to the high taxes that the City Council imposes on this type of establishment, according to general comments.
Fantastic experience: En Cullera, la playa del Racó junto con la playa de San Antonio, forman una preciosa y enorme playa de arena blanca y fina, con multitud de accesos, vigilancia y socorristas, postas sanitarias, lavapies, chiringuitos, etc. En todo el paseo marítimo que la circunda hay una enorme variedad de bares, restaurantes, heladerías y comercios de ropa, calzado, bazares, busuteria, regalos, etc. Con bandera azul.... Una de las mejores playas de la Comunidad Valenciana. Para no perdérsela.
Positive experience: Dentro de las playas que tiene Cullera las hay con diferentes Nombres es un sitio muy turístico en verano con muchos comercios con productos turísticos Restaurante Heladerías Panaderías con pasteleria en fin playa y pueblos están unidos hay un mirador en la parte Alta que tiene una Bonitas Vistas
Positive experience: En muchos sentidos, la mejor playa de Cullera. Se trata de la zona de playa ubicada en el Racó III, donde en verano hay una gran actividad turística. Desde hace unos años, esta zona, como el resto del Racó se ha habilitado con un paseo marítimo precioso y unas formaciones rocosas, que permitieron atraer más arena. Antiguamente era tan escasa que se hacía imposible disfrutar de un rato tumbado al sol. Ahora dispone de una amplia zona de arena dorada, con chiringuitos dispersos e instalaciones deportivas como volley playa. El agua está casi siempre perfecta y la limpieza de las playas es constante, sobre todo en la época de verano. También tiene muy buen ambiente costero. Es cierto que en verano se llena, especialmente en fin de semana, pero realmente no llega a la masificación de otras playas. Incluso la zona de la Playa de San Antonio reúne a mucha más gente. Solo tengo una pega de esta playa. La falta de duchas para el cuerpo. Tiene en algunos espacios duchas para el pie, pero no duchas para el cuerpo. Cuenta con que los veraneantes cercanos podrán ducharse en sus propias piscinas. Esto es algo ilógico y poco práctico, pues obliga a estas personas a volver a su apartamento cuando quizás no era su intención en ese momento. Del mismo modo, ¿qué sucede con los turistas que vienen a pasar el día? Me parece algo tan grave y tan fácil de solucionar, que el hecho de que lleven tantos años con este defecto me impide darle una mejor valoración como me gustaría, porque la playa la merece.

Fantastic experience: Lugar para familias, un gran lujo aqui en España, no esta llena, son playas muy grandes, maxima seguridad y muy bien organizada
Fantastic experience: Súper tranquilo entre semana, masificado los fines de semana. Aún así, sin problemas en la playa y manteniendo perfectamente las distancias de seguridad
Negative experience: La playa estupenda, la pena es que no se han tomado medidas para evitar el Covid-19, no se ha parcelado la playa y si quieres mantener la distancia de seguridad terminas discutiendo con los incivicos que por desgracia hay demasiados.

Fantastic experience: It is a 10 beach overall. I have spent my whole life summering in Cullera and it is by far one of my favorite places. A big beach ideal for walking along the shore, a nice stroll with various options to have a drink, eat, etc., as well as to take a tour and visit shops. I also have to say that in recent years it breaks my heart to see the conditions it is in due to the little respect from people. It makes me very angry to see it like this: fish swimming among used pads, food wrappers, ice cream spoons, cigarette butts, band-aids... in short, a lot of trash floating in the water and lurking on the sand. And I also have to say that lately it is more crowded than usual. Let's enjoy but respecting, please.

Negative experience: Playa con acceso a discapacitados sí, pero que no te pille la persona encargada de la gestión dia 30 de agosto, turno tarde, que si no llevas el carnet de discapacidad no le sirve para que puedas estar en la zona acotada, aunque sea evidente. Está cumpliendo la norma, sí, pero hay que tener más empatia con las personas que tienen una discapacidad que se ve claramente, sin necesidad de un carnet que en ese momento no llevaba.Me ve con muletas, con una pierna con polio, caminando con mucha dificultad y por no llevar mi carnet que indica un 50% de discapacidad reconocida por la Generalitat Valenciana,( que se lo he dicho) , sin ninguna amabilidad, me indica que no puedo quedarme en la zona acotada para los que tenemos diversidad funcional. No os parece poca sensibilidad? Todavía estamos así? Son normas del ayuntamiento? Aclaro que yo me fui, y que en esa zona mientras yo estuve(2 horas) estuvo completamente vacía, prefiere que esté vacía a que la ocupe una persona con la movilidad reducida sin carnet, aunque salte a la vista dicha discapacidad.
Fantastic experience: Playa con ingreso al mar Mediterráneo, en verano adaptada para minusválidos, salvavidas, aseos y posta de emergencia cuenta con parking. Ideal.para ir con niños pues cuenta con diversas áreas de juego y la playa es muy baja, pues sobrepasa la rodilla de un adulto
Fantastic experience: Una playa super ancha e inmensa de larga, con chiringuitos para tomarte algo, paseo marítimo infinito, con diversidad de comercios. Rodeada de edificios con apartamentos y hoteles.

Fantastic experience: Nice!
Fantastic experience: One of the best beaches in the C.V.
Fantastic experience: A very good beach. Very spacious, calm waves and lots of sandy area. They keep it clean every day.
Positive experience: One of the best beaches in the Mediterranean, without a doubt, although we visited it in August and September and there is a difference in terms of occupancy.
Positive experience: A great beach. If it had the typical beach picnic areas, it would be extraordinary. There are fewer and fewer beach restaurants. It seems that the closures are due to the high taxes that the City Council imposes on this type of establishment, according to general comments.
Fantastic experience: I go back there once a year. Beach of my childhood...
Fantastic experience: Perfect
Fantastic experience: The best beach in Cullera, close to the center and not as crowded as San Antonio. It is supervised and does not cover much, ideal for coming with children and elderly people.
Fantastic experience: 24 hours of service!!
Positive experience: My favorite beach, usually the water is clean and it has less crowding than other beaches in Cullera.
Fantastic experience: Very beautiful beach
Positive experience: In summer it's unbearable with people. I got hit in the face by a ball in the sea. Playing with a ball should be prohibited with so many people around.
Fantastic experience: Clean beach, fine sand and not crowded in the middle of August. We come every year for all this.
Fantastic experience: We really liked this beach, it's very family-friendly, with few waves, spacious, and the water has a perfect temperature.
Positive experience: I prefer other beaches in Cullera since here algae sometimes accumulate, there are more waves, it's smaller (that's why it seems there are more people), still, it is clean and pleasant like the other beaches in Cullera.
Fantastic experience: Excellent beach, gradually covered with very even sand without steps. Perfect for children.
Fantastic experience: This beach is very good. I like it. Can see the moon and wave. And feel the wind. Give me a holiday feeling.
Fantastic experience: A family beach, with plenty of space. Clean and with fine sand.
Positive experience: Ideal beach for going with kids. Fine sand, does not sink and barely has waves. Very large. Quite crowded. No showers (only for rinsing feet). The only downside is that (at least when we were there) there were a lot of seaweed and the water was quite dirty.
Fantastic experience: Fine and clean sand.
Positive experience: Cullera beach area is narrow in sand
Fantastic experience: The best beach in Cullera without a doubt
Positive experience: There are not enough showers, but otherwise it’s quite good.
Negative experience: Beautiful, clean with bars where you can have a drink or eat with family or friends ☺️
Fantastic experience: The Platja del Racó de Cullera is located within the Bay of Los Naranjos, featuring low waves, shallow depth, and crystal clear waters. Very safe. Ideal for going with children.
Negative experience: I just visited Cullera beach and I was greatly disappointed. The beach was dirty and overcrowded. The water was full of plastics and other waste, something unbelievable in the 21st century. I am used to enjoying coves and virgin beaches where this doesn't happen. It's a shame to see a beach with so much potential in these conditions. I hope the authorities take action to improve the cleanliness and conservation of this space.
Fantastic experience: It is a 10 beach overall. I have spent my whole life summering in Cullera and it is by far one of my favorite places. A big beach ideal for walking along the shore, a nice stroll with various options to have a drink, eat, etc., as well as to take a tour and visit shops.

Fantastic experience: A vast beach ideal for sharing with family and friends. It has all the services. Its waters are warm and the sand is fine. We were pleasantly surprised by the town of Cullera! If you want to disconnect, it is undoubtedly an ideal place. In summer, like in any coastal area in Spain, it gets crowded, so I recommend you take the necessary measures to ensure your stay is enjoyable. One aspect to consider is the limited parking availability during peak season, as well as the need to make reservations if you want to eat at certain places. But it is definitely a 100 percent recommended place!
