Fantastic experience: Very clean and well-maintained in terms of structure, and pleasant to stroll. Our great joy to go there. Cyclists also have their bike path without disturbing pedestrians.
Negative experience: Torres del Mar is a beach that is not worth saying more praises about, enough has already been said valuing the good, but like all things, there is another side to the coin. I mean this beach is not equipped for ELDERLY PEOPLE, in fact, it can be said that it is dangerous for people with 'natural mobility limitation', I refer to elderly people who have lost mobility due to age. It would be better if these people don't bathe in the beach due to the impossibility of getting out of the water without the risk of falling because of the CHINESE STEP on the shore. It turns out that when you want to get out of the water, the pebbles dig into your feet, causing falls with a risk of injuring ligaments. It is a sight to see elderly people get out of the water; they cannot do so without someone helping them... Well, it seems that no one cares about this, however, these elderly people have been neighbors of this city for 20 or 30 years, and after having paid taxes like the IBI at a price three or four times higher being a second home, while residents pay three or four times less. This attitude from the Town Hall is an attitude of discrimination against those who are not residents. Well, this discrimination makes residents grateful for this tax reduction, and the owners of second homes are 'angry' about it. And I ask, if residents are happy and are the ones who can vote for the Town Hall politicians, and those who are not 'favored' cannot vote because they are registered in another city, I wonder what is happening in Torre del Mar with municipal taxes? Are politicians buying the goodwill of the favored ones so they can vote for them? Does any politician care that the elderly cannot bathe in the beach without endangering their physical integrity? Well, these things have been happening in Torre del Mar for decades and nothing is solved, what matters is only that you keep voting for whoever buys your goodwill, and that money is spent in shops and the economy is moved, the rest does not matter to anyone. Oh, one more important thing, I almost forgot to mention the dirt floating in the water that appears almost every day around noon. At midday, some floating dirt appears in the water, of an unknown appearance but very unpleasant, some unknown brown particles appear, as if some matter has gone through a shredder and it hasn't completely ground the dirt. Anyone who sees them can reach a conclusion about what that matter is; I also come to my conclusions, but I don't publish them, so let everyone who sees them reach their own conclusion; it is totally disgusting and repulsive to bathe surrounded by that filthy dirt.
Positive experience: Great beach, wide boulevard with a bike path, many children's playgrounds. And for seniors, there are sports facilities scattered here and there :) (it is not the prettiest beach but it is gigantic. Even a separate dog beach. And for naturists, there is also a beach.)
Fantastic experience: Very nice and clean place, great promenade, extra bike path, cool bars and restaurants. Not a typical 'tourist spot' and everything at moderate prices. We would be happy to come back.
Fantastic experience: Relaxing, there is a path to walk along the beach, parallel to the boardwalk.

Positive experience: Muy buenos servicios. Una playa muy completa, muy bien pensada tanto para personas mayores como para niños. No entiendo porque los dueños de los perros siguen accediendo con sus animales si está prohibido y hay una playa canina. Hay personas con enfermedades como alergias o fobias. Hoy en día los perros lo invaden todo sin que los dueños tengan ningún tipo de consideración por estas personas que sufren estas enfermedades. El ayuntamiento debería hacer más porque los dueños de los perros lleven a estos a la playa canina y no a la genérica.
Negative experience: Bueno la playa esta fenomenal llena de chiringuitos y uno de los mejores paseos de la costa del sol , además tiene los mejores servicios para las familias y una playa para las mascotas con sus servicios para ellos y ellas a mi me parece que muy pocas playas tienen los servicios que tiene esta con un paseo lleno de chiringuitos muy bonitos puestos para cenar y tomarse una Copa por la noche yo soy de salir y tomar algo es fenomenal espero encontraros por alli
Fantastic experience: The most complete variety of services and conveniences to spend a day at the beach, whether you want to enjoy some time by yourself or bringing the whole family for sure you won't miss anything. #opengym #kidsplayground #picnicareas #wc #bookletstations #lotsofparking #chiringuitos #localshops #restaurants #cafeterias #beachclubs #dogsbeach #wheelchairaccesible & much more.

Positive experience: Unfortunately only coarse gravel. Bathing shoes are advisable. €10 for 2 sunbeds with umbrella is reasonable. There are enough beach restaurants available.
Fantastic experience: Beach with all the luxury of details for the whole family; games for children, seaside promenade with many beach bars to eat and drink, sports piers, equipment for elderly people to exercise, restrooms, changing tables, important safety and lifeguard provisions, beach adapted for people with reduced mobility... and very clean. Pebble beach.

Fantastic experience: Como playa, indudablemente las hay con arena más fina y más blanca. Muy limpia, tanto la arena, que limpian a diario, como el agua, del que se encarga un barco que pasa varias veces al día retirando los pocos residuos que floran. A nivel servicios, de las mejores. Gimnasios al aire libre, áreas infantiles muy completas, violey playa, duchas (aunque por la sequía ahora mismo están sin agua), vestuarios, acceso para personas con movilidad reducida, ofreciendo incluso sillas adaptadas para que se puedan bañar acompañados en todo momento de un socorrista.
Fantastic experience: Magnifica playa con aseos, merendero y caseta de la cruz roja, donde trabajan unos socorristas maravillosos que te ayudan en todo lo que pueden. Esta playa en concreto también está adaptada para minusválidos y servicio de baños en la playa y duchas en la caseta, de todo esto se ocupa el magnífico equipo de socorristas. No es una playa de arena, personalmente prefiero las piedritas, no me gusta acabar llena de arena, ya que el ayuntamiento cierra las duchas por la sequía. Es el único inconveniente, pero por lo demás es espectacular son cespecillos con palmeras y sus sombrillas de paja para la zona de minusválidos.
Fantastic experience: La mejor playa de Malaga. Tiene todas las facilidades que puedas desear para un día de playa. Además que la zona de playa está demarcada para cumplir con las medidas de distanciamiento social. Personal de socorristas muy atentos a sus labores. Constantemente pasan las lanchas que hacen la limpieza de la cristalina agua de la playa. Hay un muy largo y bello bulevar donde pasear,areas para hacer ejercicios y pista para trotar. Igualmente encontrarás zona de parques para los niños y área de cuenta cuentos. Encontraras muchos buenos restaurantes. Si estás por la zona, no dejes de visitarla.

Fantastic experience: La playa de Torre del Mar es un lugar fantástico para disfrutar, y durante el Festival Aéreo se convierte en un escenario único. El espectáculo de los aviones es impresionante, con acrobacias que dejan a todos con la boca abierta. La playa está muy bien cuidada, amplia y perfecta para pasar el día en familia o con amigos. Además, la ubicación es ideal porque cerca se encuentran varios restaurantes y chiringuitos donde degustar pescado frito, espetos y otras delicias locales. Una combinación perfecta de mar, diversión y gastronomía. ¡Una experiencia que merece mucho la pena repetir!
Fantastic experience: Grande. Limpia. Con actividades para todas las edades. Originales isletas. Duchas divertidas. Vestuarios del antiguo oeste, la mejor invención para el cambio de ropa. Ambiente divertido. De risas..recomendable. olé y olé y olé
Positive experience: Gran playa con chiringuitos, zonas para niños con diversos entretenimientos, duchas y un espléndido paseo marítimo..
Fantastic experience: Plage rénovée avec accès pour personne à mobilité réduite, toilettes, douche et divers chiringito d'un bout à l'autre du passage maritime du port de pêche à une extrémité à l'autre du côté du camping de titre del mare.

Torre del Mar Beach: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Great beach. Lots of shops around the area and places to eat
Fantastic experience: Incredible scenery, cleanliness, and tranquility. There are public restrooms and volleyball courts.
Fantastic experience: A wonderful beach where you can watch amazing sunrises. I had the opportunity to stay in a rented house right by the shore. On the beach, you can find plenty of beautiful stones that are also at the bottom of the water, which is a downside in terms of comfort when entering the water. (I recommend bringing water shoes, and if you don’t bring them, you can buy them at a nearby souvenir shop.) I recommend this place.
Positive experience: The promenade is great for long walks.
Fantastic experience: Very clean and well-maintained in terms of structure, and pleasant to stroll. Our great joy to go there. Cyclists also have their bike path without disturbing pedestrians.
Fantastic experience: To take a walk and escape from the daily routine
Fantastic experience: It has almost everything, the pity is that they forget about the other towns like Caleta.
Fantastic experience: This beach is very welcoming!
Fantastic experience: To repeat over and over again.
Fantastic experience: I went to spend the day and see the aircraft exhibition and I had a blast
Positive experience: Very good beach.
Negative experience: Lots of rocks, no sand.

Positive experience: The beach is very stony, but the atmosphere of the town is impressive. Stunning promenade full of entertainment venues. Great for a summer vacation.
Fantastic experience: We love this beach, but at the farthest part of the town, because the one right on the promenade is shameful due to the behavior of smokers with the cigarette butts... all of them on the ground, what a pity.

Fantastic experience: Great beach, but the black sand can become pretty hot in summer so you are close to burning your feet.

Fantastic experience: Respect to the local administration for the efforts and the great job done in creating a beautiful beach into a place accessible to all, clean, perfectly maintained and loved by people.
