Information

Playa del Rinconcillo is a beautiful family-friendly beach located in the stunning bay of Algeciras, with views of the iconic Rock of Gibraltar. This beach is ideal for swimming and relaxing, offering calm waters and warm temperatures, making it perfect for children and families.

The amenities are plentiful, including nearby restaurants, bars, lifeguards, and facilities for changing and showering. Visitors appreciate the clean sand and the opportunity to enjoy fresh seafood from local eateries. However, some users have noted that the beach can be affected by pollution from nearby industrial areas, particularly when strong winds blow, which can impact the water quality.

The parking situation can be challenging during peak times, and some concerns have been raised about maintenance and cleanliness, with occasional complaints regarding odors. Despite these drawbacks, the beach remains a highly recommended spot for family outings, relaxation, and enjoying the beauty of the surrounding area.

Positive experience: If you are in Algeciras and want to enjoy the sea, it can be a valid solution. Close to the city, reachable by taxi or with your car (a bit of patience for parking), the beach is free but equipped with security service, restaurants, and bars very close by. The water is reasonably clean despite the visible port, but far enough away. The view of the rock of Gibraltar makes everything more exotic. Recommended.

Positive experience: Playa sucia, difícil aparcar ya que es una playa de pueblo.

Positive experience: Playa familiar y de tradición pescadora. Está en una bahía con vistas al peñón de Gibraltar. No es muy grande, por lo que en verano es difícil aparcar y disfrutar de un trozo de arena.

Fantastic experience: Un lugar muy familiar y comodo, con las facilidades de socorristas y la posibilidad de duchas, cambiarse de ropa y en las diferentes localizaciónes. El problema es el aparcamiento dependiendo de la zona y a la hora que vayas.

Negative experience: Playa familiar, por su poca profundidad es ideal para niños pequeños. Pero podría mejorar los accesos y SOBRETODO gran falta de aparcamientos.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful city beach with clean sand and water, despite the nearby harbor. Very interesting to watch the large container ships against the backdrop of Gibraltar.

Fantastic experience: A pesar de la contaminación que pudiera acumular la arena, víctima de tiempos pasados en donde se era más tolerante con los contaminadores, nos ha gustado mucho pasear por esta playa.

Fantastic experience: No creo que haya un restaurante más bonito en Algeciras, y la belleza es cómplice de la calidad

Fantastic experience: Ambiente agradable y familiar. Playa de agua cálida y tranquila, ideal para toda la familia. Restaurantes, chiringuitos, kioscos, socorristas, cruz roja, parada de taxis y de autobuses, alquiler de hidropedales, puntos limpios para reciclaje y basuras, duchas... Muy recomendable. Repetiremos.

Positive experience: Recogida playa familiar y urbana con todos los servicios restaurantes bares y muy segura para los niños porque no tiene corrientes ni escalones en el agua

Francisco Javier Cuevas Zapata 7 years ago

Positive experience: La playa en general es buena. El agua está algo fría, y la arena es finísima. Al entrar en el agua, si jugamos con la arena veremos que hay una capa fina de arena blanca, tras está aparece una capa de arena negruzca, con mal olor. Hay mogollón de hinchas enormes desperdigadas por la costa, el problema es que por culpa de está arena negra las colchas que llevan más tiempo con el ese color negro, pero aun así siempre encuentras conchas limpias. Si nos aproximamos a la zona de la derecha de la costa, la que da hacia el puerto marítimo, hay menos gente, y más tranquilidad, aunque también estaremos lejos de los chiringuitos.

Fantastic experience: In the most beautiful bay of the Mediterranean is Rinconcillo Beach with views of the Rock of Gibraltar, a place to walk, eat, and relax with family. Very nice place to rest and disconnect.

Fantastic experience: Very good, the only thing is that they should extend the dog area a few more meters, because it feels small for everyone to enjoy. Other than that, showers for the dogs and for us ah!! And facilities. GREAT, I recommend it 100%.
