Cove of Fustera

Negative experience: Rough sand, a lot of trash in the water and difficult to find parking. 5 minutes north to ampolla or south to calpe are MUCH better options. Have no intention of returning

Positive experience: We went here five years ago but only to the beach restaurant. Food ok. Decided to go back but to beach this time in June25. Sorry but did not like beach, it seemed man made. Stones and large rocks everywhere, and not good access to the sea due to large rocks at sea entrence. Won't be going back.

Positive experience: Great views and an all around beautiful spot for sightseeing. Only a small area was marked off for swimming likely due to the rocks in the water, careful not to slip! The sand is a bit too coarse for my taste but still glad I came to see it.

Fantastic experience: The place is beautiful! Too bad we got cloudy days during our holiday. I wish I had sunny days to see how the place shines under the sun.

Positive experience: Beach is not the same as the main pictures posted currently

Positive experience: Small cozy beach with a good restaurant. Busy in the summer, even in mid-February busy in the restaurant.

Fantastic experience: Spectacular cove, with all possible services, easy access, perfectly maintained and clean, parking ️...café restaurant, kayak rental, paddle surfing...crystal clear waters, perfect for spending the day with family, friends, as a couple, or alone....100% recommendable

Fantastic experience: Beautiful little beach where you can sit comfortably on the terrace for a snack and a drink. You can easily park there. Sometimes it is very busy with cars, then it's better to drive to Calle Pinets and park your car there and from there walk along the rocky beautiful coast towards this little beach.

Fantastic experience: The most beautiful bay in the area.

Fantastic experience: Even though they only have tourist prices, it's a nice place to grab a coffee.

Fantastic experience: Very nice beach, with pleasant service

Positive experience: Beautiful little beach with a restaurant. It is a bit difficult to enter the sea due to various stones, but otherwise good.

Positive experience: They weren't stones, they were rocks to enter the water. I see it as a very average beach; perhaps the water looks different when it's choppy.

Negative experience: Good restaurant, but a very small beach, and not clean!

Positive experience: Very pretty

Positive experience: Beautiful place!!

Positive experience: The cove is nice, it's small and in September it is not very crowded. The problem is that a lot of sargassum accumulates on the left side. I recommend wearing water shoes to enter.

Fantastic experience: Nice cove, with parking, lifeguards, and very, very quiet. There is no sand, just like mini pebbles, it's very pleasant. Places to eat and well-maintained.

Positive experience: Beautiful beach although small and it gets crowded.

Positive experience: I liked it, it's small but the water is very good. You have to wear water shoes because it's rocky.

Positive experience: The cove is nice, but the water is dirty and the beach is crowded with people.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful place to spend the day. Stunning views. Very clean water. Perfect for snorkeling. Many different fish, reef-like rocks, etc...

Positive experience: If you want to park, you have to be there by 08:00. Then it works well. After that, it's practically impossible. The sand is very coarse. It's difficult to enter the sea due to rocks. Not suitable for people with mobility issues or poor eyesight. The bar by the beach only opens at 10:00, so it's quite late for breakfast. The beverages are fine and well taken care of. Prices are a bit high, but you are right by the beach.

Positive experience: Too many people

Negative experience: Disappointing, beach is an artificial gravel pit where you can't even push the umbrella because there's concrete half a meter deep, the bathroom is impossible, there are many rocks right at the shore and that's where the waves break, if you want to break an ankle, it's a good option.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful little beach with a lovely restaurant for lunch or 'à sangria'. Free parking on the side but get here before 9:30 AM to have a space ... Love it ❤️

Positive experience: Tampons and pads on the beach. :(

Positive experience: Good location, a bit too cafeteria-like.

Positive experience: Good service

Positive experience: Very crowded. Little space.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful place but very crowded. It was difficult to park, but we left the car in the parking lot of the La Fustera Restaurant, had a drink, and went to the beach. We returned to eat at the restaurant and I honestly loved the beach.

Fantastic experience: Small and charming beach surrounded by nature, with coarse sand over rocks, it's not easy to put up the umbrella in some places. It's advisable to wake up early during the season, essential if it's the weekend because it gets crowded. Less people and quieter in the afternoon. Three restaurants nearby, Mandala right on the beach, reservation recommended (we ate very well there). Parking with shaded trees and electric charging points. Lifeguard service. Water shoes are recommended, ideal for snorkeling/diving.

Positive experience: Beautiful

Fantastic experience: Super beautiful beach in a bay

Positive experience: Small cozy beach! Nice and clean water, a bit rocky bottom. Good restaurant next to it.

Fantastic experience: Small cove with coarse sand. With clear waters! It's very cozy!

Positive experience: The place itself is beautiful, but there are too many people to enjoy the beach.

Fantastic experience: Excellent location, in one of the most beautiful coves of Benissa. Variety in portions, very good rice dishes. Parking next to the restaurant. Extensive terrace with a sea breeze.

Fantastic experience: Sandy beach, good access, clean water, parking, fills up quickly but there's space nearby without a problem. There is a Mandala restaurant right on the beach, a luxury. The only downside is that the foot wash was not working.

Positive experience: I have been here many times and it has never been this neglected. It usually looks spectacular.

Fantastic experience: Spectacular!!!! The only downside is the lack of showers. There were sinks, but the last time they weren't working...(it was two weeks ago)

Positive experience: Much better than some more well-known ones, I recommend it! The water is clean and with snorkeling goggles you can see the fish perfectly.

Fantastic experience: The best beach I have ever been to. Crystal clear water. Great views. Picnic area nearby. Restaurant. Beautiful.

Positive experience: Cozy cove, a bit crowded, and the apartment just okay.

Negative experience: I would say Cala Furtera is very beautiful, but be careful because they steal all your belongings from the car in the parking lot, what a shame. Bad memory.

Fantastic experience: Great place, full of nature with a wonderful walkway by the sea with excellent views. You can take a walking route, the water is very good except when there are a lot of seaweeds. The Mandala restaurant with views of the beach is a good plan. Problems with charging and parking an electric car. Busy place with non-electric cars and the chargers in summer don't work.

Positive experience: The beach Playa de la Fustera in Moraira is one of the few sandy beaches in the region and offers a really nice beach experience. The water here is clear and invites swimming and snorkeling. Despite the occasional pollution from debris washed up from the sea, the beach remains an attractive destination, especially for families. The family-friendly atmosphere and the well-visited location create a lively mood. Ideal for a relaxing day by the sea with all the amenities needed for a successful beach enjoyment. Absolutely recommended for visitors who want to enjoy the vibrant beach life!️

Positive experience: Beautiful and peaceful

Fantastic experience: Spectacular

Fantastic experience: Spectacular walk from Calpe to Benissa for adults with or without children, you walk along the coast without cars or pollution. It's a dirt path with views of the coves and cliffs. There are many restaurants to eat in, including Mándala among others.

Fantastic experience: Good place to walk near the beach and coastal spots.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful place

Fantastic experience: Very beautiful quiet place and cove.

Negative experience: In early September, when most of the tourism had left, they closed the beach due to fecal contamination, but the smell of sewage had been there since mid-June. It's a shame because it's a beautiful cove, but they actually let people swim in s*** for months.

Fantastic experience: Super nice with a view and nice service

Fantastic experience: Calm and family-oriented.

Positive experience: Another beach in the municipality, Cala La Fustera being the main one in the area. It has a length of 110 meters and a width of 30 meters. The vegetation reaches almost to the first line of the sea and the crystal-clear water allows us to admire a seabed where the fauna is varied. Snorkeling can be practiced, and one can observe the meadows of Posidonia oceanica around. It has the necessary services to make our day pleasant with family or friends. It has restrooms, a beach bar, a children's play area, a picnic area, lifeguards, and access for people with reduced mobility. During the summer season, it offers amphibious chairs and swimming aids for adapted bathing.

Fantastic experience: Nice little beach with parking nearby

Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach and good places.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful clean beach. Swam and ate while it was (in September) not busy.

Positive experience: A lovely cove near Calpe, but for the dates when I visited last time, mid-September, it was a bit crowded.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach with calm and crystal-clear water

Positive experience: A small and beautiful cove. With parking for a few cars. It has a lifeguard station and public restrooms.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful white sand cove, turquoise water when the sea is calm. It fills up quickly with people, in September... in July and August, I don't even want to think about it!

Fantastic experience: Restaurant La Fustera excellent

Fantastic experience: Magnificent beach

Fantastic experience: Beautiful

Fantastic experience: Very beautiful beach, it's true that the parking is small, we were lucky to find a spot right when we arrived, it was early afternoon, it's very nice, friendly, quiet.

Fantastic experience: The Alicante Caribbean

Fantastic experience: Spectacular, simply

Positive experience: Very beautiful

Positive experience: Good place for a day of sun

Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach/cove nestled in one of the best spots in Benissa, although it's closer to Calpe. Very photogenic and clean.

Fantastic experience: An incredible place especially if you avoid the summer months when there are many people and it's hard to find parking. Beautiful photos at sunset.

Fantastic experience: Amazing water. Beautiful place with a small chringuito right in front of the beach to grab a little something to drink or eat

Positive experience: Very beautiful beach, and you can go for a walk and access others on foot. The only downside is that the parking area fills up quickly.

Negative experience: After taking the walk from Alicante, upon arrival it was closed for the bathroom due to fecal matter. We checked before going and it said that there was a green flag. A mistake not to warn about these things.

Fantastic experience: Last Saturday, I had the pleasure of visiting Cala de la Fustera, and it was an absolute delight. The beach was incredibly peaceful and quiet, offering a serene and relaxing atmosphere. The crystal-clear waters were a treat for the senses, inviting me to take a refreshing dip and explore the underwater beauty. The sandy beach itself was well-maintained and provided a comfortable spot to lounge and soak up the sun. The soft sand was perfect for leisurely walks along the shore, I enjoyed the tranquil surroundings. One of the highlights of my visit was witnessing the breathtaking sunrise. The colors that painted the sky were simply mesmerizing, creating a truly magical experience. It was an unforgettable moment that added a touch of wonder to my time at Cala de la Fustera. Overall, I highly recommend Cala de la Fustera for those seeking a peaceful and picturesque beach getaway. The tranquility, clear waters, and beautiful sandy beach make it a perfect destination for relaxation and rejuvenation. Whether you're looking for a quiet retreat or a chance to witness nature's beauty, Cala de la Fustera won't disappoint.

Fantastic experience: I love this place, good parking, small beach not crowded and there is rental of paddle surf or kayaks. You can snorkel in its crystal clear waters. From there you can walk to Calpe in 1 hour along the ecological trail that connects the coast with pine trees and is very well marked for hiking with the best views.

Positive experience: A beautiful cove with sandy crystal-clear waters. If you want to go snorkeling, I don't recommend it as there are hardly any fish. The three stars are due to the bad smell that occasionally hit us, like rotten eggs, and it was unbearable. It also gets really crowded, as we ended up leaving because people were too close to us and the situation was overwhelming. Throughout midday, the water was dirty, full of algae and bits of reeds. The parking is quite good for being a cove, but you have to go early to find a spot.

Fantastic experience: Sand beach with grain type, spectacular, both sides of the cove have stones, clear water and many small fish can be seen. Difficult to park but worth it. From there, walking on the left path, you reach Cala Pinets beach in a few minutes... another spectacle in terms of water clarity.. must-see!!

Fantastic experience: Beach with easy access for parking. With a bar and bathroom service. The beach is spectacular, one of my favorites, and there is a trail where you can enjoy the amazing views. Clean and clear water. It's going to be one of my hideouts.

Negative experience: Beach is small, not too many spaces, and it gets super crowded Water is normal

Positive experience: A free public lagoon type of sand beach. Easily approachable by car, some free parking spots as well on the roadside. Really liked the sand as it was not too fine, therefore didnt get everywhere. There was a lot of dead algae in the water, also a big pile of dried washed out algae on one side of the beach (mid April). Water was colder than at some other beaches, probably because the water was not shallow. Only toilet was of the restaurant's.

Fantastic experience: Lovely little beach, with restaurant on the beach front

Fantastic experience: Our favourite beach near Benissa and Calpe. Quite small and cosy, there is a decent chiringuita as well and you can start the Paseo Ecologico from here

Fantastic experience: Gorgeous sandy beach, although the sand is a little coarse. Kayaks for rent. Beachside bar where you can sit down for food & drinks or takeaway ice creams. Typically busy but with space on the beach, car park often full. There is a shady picnic area with benches. There is a children's play area on the beach. On the coastal path, very short walk to tourist information centre.

Fantastic experience: BRU TAL

Fantastic experience: Lovely food, good service and beautiful setting.

Positive experience: Nice beach. There are local guards who make sure social distance is adhered to. The surface is sandy but to go into sea take care due to stones. What I have been missing here was water tap to clean feet.

Fantastic experience: Just 1km from our house and this is our little paradise .

Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach with good restaurant overlooking it. Convenient parking. BUT..... extremely busy and crowded in tourist season

Fantastic experience: Amazing place. Can get busy in the summer months so if you don't come early be prepared to walk. Adjacent to the excellent Mandala chiringito. Went there this afternoon and watched the world go by. Beautiful views and surroundings. One of our favourite local spots.

Positive experience: Lovely small bay, not sure how busy it would get in the middle of summer, but at the end of Oct it was lovely. I would give it 5 stars but the sand drops away into the sea very quickly and it gets rocky under foot very near the waters edge.

Positive experience: Nice but crowded. You have to get there no later than 9am during August or you won't be able to park. They have rescue service a good restaurant and all amenities you need on the beach. You can also make some walk as there is a path prepared with some nice views

Fantastic experience: Lovely little beach with a great cafe/restaurant right by it. Plenty of parking and loos too.

Fantastic experience: Stunning beach well worth the visit and recommended to spend time to relax on the beach. Or do some snorkeling and paddle boarding. Also ideal to start the coastal walk to Calpe.

Fantastic experience: Nice beach with nearby good restaurant

Fantastic experience: Out of season with only a handful of people and a seagull

Fantastic experience: Lived there for 10 years. Do beautiful and peaceful
