Positive experience: Playa muy familiar y muy buen ambiente tiene de todo acceso muy bueno
Positive experience: Es amplia, con bastantes accesos en rampa, lavapiés, es de piedras pequeñas, en algunos tramos diminutas, incluso dentro del agua. Hay una sola zona de alquiler de sombrillas y tumbonas, hay q andar bastante desde el comienzo del paseo marítimo para llegar, cuesta 10€ todo el día. Zona para personas con movilidad reducida. Puestos de socorro. En algunos tramos hay grupos de palmeras.
Fantastic experience: Me encanta la playa y sobretodo el paseo marítimo. Es un playa que para ser de ciudad es de arena y tiene muchos aparcamientos, aunque pueda retirarse de la zona donde quieras disfrutar.
Fantastic experience: Estupenda playa en la misma ciudad de Almería con muy buenos accesos y servicios, donde todo está muy cerca ( cafeterías, restaurantes, heladerías, tiendas, etc...). Una playa estupenda donde ir con la familia al completo y acabar a la luz de la noche disfrutando del mar en calma
Fantastic experience: Está muy bien equipada y es muy limpia tiene muy buen ambiente

Positive experience: We do not see a deep cleaning, it is true that due to the users, especially cigarette butts. The showers during the summer and peak usage season (August) are somewhat clogged, and when you go to clean the sand off your feet, there is a puddle of water, not hygienic at all. I do not agree with allowing dogs on the entire beach in winter, they urinate and defecate where small children then play with the sand; they could designate one specifically for them, for example near the mouth of the Andarax River where the Promenade has already been extended.
Positive experience: El día que creen una playa para perros será excepcional.
Positive experience: Nice beach,plenty of seating on esplanade, good choice of cafes and restaurants at Almeria end but bit sparse then until you reach New Almeria..lots of locals walk their dogs so watch your feet!! Very surprised at their lack of care especially when the locals take their children there..
Positive experience: Es un lugar tranquilo, donde poder pasear a las mascotas y sin problemas. Con buenas vistas y sensaciones únicas.

Positive experience: Very spacious beach. With black sand. Where there are some artists displaying their sand sculptures. The sunset over the horizon, one of the shows not to be missed. The wind can be the only inconvenience at times.

Fantastic experience: A ten out of ten urban beach with all the necessary services without overcrowding as it is very long. Great cleanliness, crystal clear water, blue flag and sustainability, with a large number of restaurants, ice cream shops, cafes, beach bars, a wide promenade, children's play areas, sports, and good lighting. With many activities and a lot of life all year round for all ages.
Fantastic experience: I really love it, very large divided into many small beaches, there are cafes, restaurants, showers, restrooms... Everything a person needs at the beach, I recommend it.
Positive experience: Shhhhh... don't tell anybody about this place! Miles of beaches, backed up by bars, cafes and restaurants and populated mainly by locals, this reminds me of Málaga 20 years ago and Barcelona 35 years ago before they were each 'discovered' by the international stag and hen set. Enjoy now, before the rush.

Positive experience: I was staying in Almería, so i visited the beach a few times. Its not very touristy, you can't even rent a bed on most area of the beach. Midweek till about 5pm,it was quiet, but come 5pm onwards it packed like sardines, with so many large families. I like watching the ferries, as the the marina was close by, the ferries departed regularly. There is also a good selection bars/cafes/restaurants on the beach front. Beach has public toilets & showers.

Fantastic experience: Perfect City Beach. People respecting the 2m safety. Water is transparent and perfect temperature
Fantastic experience: Las playas de Almería en plena ciudad son magníficas. No he conocido ninguna ciudad que tenga tantos metros de playa en pleno centro, y super cuidada, bonitas, con duchas cada pocos metros, socorristas y baños
Fantastic experience: Muy buena playa en plena Almería. Servicios correctos de acceso y duchas, limpieza diaria de la arena basuras y paseo, ninguna piedra para lo que se ve en los alrededores, socorristas....y sin exceso de bañistas. Muy bien
Fantastic experience: Muy buena playa urbana. De fácil acceso y tranquila. Dispones de todos los servicios que una playa urbana debe tener como socorristas, puestos de atención, duchas, accesos de madera. Todo en la misma ciudad. Mucha arena y poca piedra. Por las mañanas es más tranquila.

Fantastic experience: Good facilities, clean water, plenty of cafes, no sunbeds to hire but sit on a towel and enjoy the sun

Positive experience: This is a good sandy beach only 10 minutes from the town. We were here in March so it was mostly people walking rather than sun bathing. There are some lovely tapas and ice cream places along the promenade, as well as some funky graffiti!
