Fantastic experience: Chill beach, not crowded, lots of parking spaces
Negative experience: Beach in a natural setting, without access paths, a large stretch of sand. Not recommended for bathing, there is a lot of slope (the water level is much lower than the sand), there is also an uncomfortable step at the entrance.
Negative experience: The beach is a bit crowded, free parking is also quite busy, the water is warm and before it covers you, there are a lot of stones, which I didn't like. There is a shower, but it doesn't have much pressure, and then you're left with a sandy path, so you end up getting sandy again.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach, with a lot of waves, free parking.
Fantastic experience: Very good, lacking beach bars, the two that are there are very outdated, I hope they take care of cleanliness and safety, the parking would be the worst, I don't know who thought of putting up bumpers that break bumpers but well, there they are. BE CAREFUL WITH YOUR BUMPERS AND LARGE CARS.

Positive experience: Beautiful beach, very large and surrounded by nature. But you can't go with dogs, the police told us they can't be on the beach...
Fantastic experience: Maravilloso lugar tanto para caminar con nuestros perros rodeados de naturaleza autóctona y tomar algo en sus restaurantes a la orilla del mar
Positive experience: Beaucoup de chiens (pourtant strictement interdit) sur cette magnifique plage. Quel dommage
Positive experience: Playa cercana a Valencia,buenos servicios(duchas,pasarelas,cruz roja),la arena bastante bien y el agua limpia para la cercanía al puerto.Buen sitio.

Positive experience: Not great the view of the port and the cranes. Not naturist either and the sand is mediocre.
Positive experience: Nice long sandy beach. Sometimes crowded though.

Fantastic experience: A beach with coarse sand and pebbles. With few people. There are no facilities around except for a restaurant. It's a place to spend the day without annoying noises. Total relaxation.

Fantastic experience: We loved going to this beach. It has a more local vibe than some of the more popular beaches closer to the city center. It's an easy bus ride on bus number 24 or 25 from central Valencia. And in our opinion, it's well worth the twenty five minute bus ride. There are a few good restaurants close by. You can definitely make an afternoon of it! We did several times!!!
Positive experience: Stunning breathtaking sunrises, perfect for immersing yourself in the fullness of colors. In the distance, you can see the island of Ibiza. Large boats offshore visible from the beach sometimes waiting in line to enter the port of Valencia. Beautiful bike paths along the beach that lead to Valencia. A very well-located restaurant 'Mikonos' where you can enjoy different delicious paellas.
Fantastic experience: Very good, lacking beach bars, the two that are there are very outdated, I hope they take care of cleanliness and safety, the parking would be the worst, I don't know who thought of putting up bumpers that break bumpers but well, there they are.

Positive experience: Not too busy, pretty clean, easy access. Hired 2 sun loungers and a umbrella at €21 for the day. The sea is very warm, feels like 30c. You will spot the odd jellyfish washed up, but that didn't seem to worry anyone. Two restaurants, showers and a first aid point. Lifeguard on duty.

Negative experience: La playa no esta mal, pero tuvimos mala suerte, el día que fuimos había una barbaridad de medusas, entrabas al agua y nada mas entrar te picaba todo el cuerpo, horrible todo el mundo salia con rojeces en el cuerpo lo peor es que los socorrista no cerraban la playa a pesar de que salieron en menos de 1 hora como 15 medusas grandes ... al final nos fuimos porque no nos podíamos ni meter... daba rabia porque la gente se metia hasta con bebes y sabiendo que habia ese peligro no hacian nada ...
Positive experience: The beach is beautiful and clean, but the sea is contaminated due to the passage and presence of cargo ships. However, it is recommended (by the lifeguard) not to enter the sea.

Positive experience: Clean beach, well worth a visit. Lifeguarded, shop with take away food and drinks, first aid station. Recommended.

Fantastic experience: Very nice and clean beach. It was much cleaner than other beaches near it. Ride to it was by bus like 30minutes and you also had to make a little hike from the bus station to the beach, but it was all worth it. Strongly advice to take sun umbrellas and everything else you need for beach fun with you, because there were no boots there selling those things. There was only one place selling food and water there, but it was short distance from the beach and was expensive. It was a bit windier then other beaches (our sun umbrella broke there, because of the wind), but waves were also better. For a child it was so much fun to float around with its swimming ring on the waves
Fantastic experience: It's the best beach with clean water more for l9ckal people
Fantastic experience: A superb family beach, a wonderful place where nature takes back its rights, calm and away from the noise of the city, I loved El Saler beach, a protected area that brings a lot of peace and beauty.

Positive experience: Very popular beach along the southern side of the city. Nice sand, small waves, much more wind than usual. You'll see people fishing and kite surfing as well as soon bathers and swimmers.

Fantastic experience: It was the best beach I've seen, I really like it a lot.

Fantastic experience: An incredible place, there weren't many people, the water was clean, everything was calm... definitely an experience to repeat.
Fantastic experience: Excellent beach
Negative experience: One of the many large beaches of Valencia. Certainly better than the city beaches, but the not excessive distance from the port means that even on this coastline the sea is not beautiful at all; often the water is smelly and it is often windy. The only plus for someone like me who lives in the city is that you can get there in 20 minutes and it's a bit less touristy. For those coming on vacation to Valencia, avoid it and move much further south.

Positive experience: Beautiful beach, very large and surrounded by nature. But you can't go with dogs, the police told us they can't be on the beach...

Positive experience: What peace and tranquility can be felt in this area.

Positive experience: Too crowded and you can hear the city.
Fantastic experience: Clean and quiet beach (thanks to the time we were there)
Positive experience: Very spacious

Large boats offshore visible from the beach sometimes waiting in line to enter the port of Valencia. Beautiful bike paths along the beach that lead to Valencia.

Positive experience: The bad thing is that when it gets dark ... there are many mosquitoes.
Fantastic experience: Clean nice beach with crystal clear water, no jellyfish.
Fantastic experience: Even better than Malvarrosa. Virgin sand without crowds. Great!

Positive experience: I really enjoy going there, it's a beach that has a great nearby park for walking and spending time outdoors.
Negative experience: The beach has been closed since yesterday for renovations, but there is no notice. You simply arrive and find that access is closed. It will remain closed for the next two weeks.
Fantastic experience: Quiet beach
Fantastic experience: Much deeper than Valencia beach where you have water up to your knees 50m from the shore. I liked it a lot. Several buses serve the beach, including bus 25 and the express bus to El Saler.
Fantastic experience: My favorite place in the world!!
Positive experience: It's not that bad. But the stones are the problem.
Positive experience: Clean beach, well worth a visit. Lifeguarded, shop with take away food and drinks, first aid station. Recommended.
Positive experience: Not too busy, pretty clean, easy access. Hired 2 sun loungers and a umbrella at €21 for the day. The sea is very warm, feels like 30c. You will spot the odd jellyfish washed up, but that didn't seem to worry anyone. Two restaurants, showers and a first aid point. Lifeguard on duty.
Positive experience: Easy parking , but the beach is full of stones.
Positive experience: The beach itself was really amazing. Lots of space, rather clean, really sunny, not far from the city, you can see the ships waiting to get into the Harbour. The only downside was that after getting out of the water my friends’ and my balls got really itchy for some reason. Besides that be aware of jellyfish.
Positive experience: Nice, quiet and clean. Free parking. Note, the restaurants are closed on a Monday.
Positive experience: Perfect beach if u want peace and quiet. A bit windy so I had to right with the Sand the whole time...but I guess it depends from the day. Clear water, nothing compared to beaches north of the port.
Fantastic experience: It is great to go there. It is quiet and relaxing. There are a few restaurants nearby and you can eat there. So my advice is to spend the hole day at El Saler beach. PS: take the EMT 25 bus to get there from Valencia.
Fantastic experience: Perfect for couples & solo travelers. Less people, less crowded, sound of sea,waves. Beach bars (3-4). From city centre to playa el saler it's bus nr. 95 (one way ticket is 1,5€)
Positive experience: Nice place with free water!
Fantastic experience: The beach , and the facilities on the beach are good. The beach hut offers good selection of cold drinks and ice lollies. It got to the point where Alfonso had ready what we wanted when he saw my daughter walking up to the beach hut.That's what I call service! Reasonable price for the beds and parasol if you stay all day like we did. We took our own lunch in a cool box. I will be back next year while visiting my daughter. The only negative comment is about the toilets. They are disgusting!!!!
Positive experience: We had a lovely walk in the forest and then a 10 min walk on the beach. Lovely beach spoilt by so much plastic rubbish. There are plenty of bins, please use to protect wildĺife xx
Positive experience: Very popular beach along the southern side of the city. Nice sand, small waves, much more wind than usual. You'll see people fishing and kite surfing as well as soon bathers and swimmers.
Positive experience: Public bathrooms were closed
Positive experience: It's ok, but rental chairs close too early, the sand is too thick and feet hurt .
