Fantastic experience: Kilometer-long sandy beach. The day we went, there was a terrible wind, it felt like a hurricane. But it was definitely worth it to see the spectacular sunset. Parking is easy. You reach a point where car traffic is prohibited. Walking, you can reach a salt flat, but we didn't make it because of the weather.
Fantastic experience: Idyllic place to spend the day, between two waters, beautiful although full of cars and vans, we went to see the sunset, there were quite a few people, it was not very clear because the sky was not clean, yet it was very beautiful
Fantastic experience: Super peaceful place to spend the day on a large beach where there are no crowds, although in recent years it has become popular and there are more people enjoying this wonder of the natural park. Currently, you have to pay for parking to access. The beach has a beach bar to grab a drink and designated parking areas and picnic tables. Highly recommended place to watch the sunsets.
Negative experience: How can we fill our mouths saying that we have a natural park and allow all sorts of lunatics, both Spanish, European, and Catalan, to enter even the sand dunes? Anyone who wants to go should travel on foot or by bicycle; motor vehicles should stay out. What a shame for this country and for the human species that wherever they go, they leave a destructive trail.
Positive experience: A regular beach, in the Ebro delta, but this doesn't make it special except that there are fewer people than at other beaches, it's easy to park and that's about it.

Fantastic experience: Toller Strand mit feiner Körnung und flach abfallend. Gering besucht und den Gegebenheiten entscheidend sehr sauber. Teilweise sind Hunde erlaubt. Camping jedoch nicht. Die Straßen zum Strand sind teilweise sehr eng. Duschen sind nicht vorhanden, da Naturstrand.
Fantastic experience: Excelente y amplísima playa de arena fina y poco viento (el día que fuimos, primera hora) en el delta del Ebro. Poca profundidad ideal para niños y mascotas. Puedes ir con tu perro, aunque no es la playa "oficial".
Fantastic experience: Buena playa para ir con crios y con los perros
Positive experience: It is a beautiful beach with two sides of the sea as it is the connection point to a peninsula, so you can enjoy sunrises and sunsets, but you cannot stay overnight. It is a beach where I have seen dogs, and we have also brought ours. But the problem is that there are many fishermen, some of whom are uncivilized and leave hooks and fishing lines on the beach, which can be ingested by our pets, which happened to us, or prick people's feet.
Negative experience: The environment itself is beautiful, but it seems unthinkable and unheard of to me that there is no capacity regulation or monitoring by the Rurals Agents in the middle of a Natural Park where so many protected bird species nest and rest. I went on a Sunday afternoon and the crowding was brutal, cars kept coming in and many ignored the prohibitions (motorized vehicles on paths only suitable for bicycles and walkers, people camping and dogs running loose despite the presence of little ringed plovers and sandpipers). Unfortunately, I decided to turn back because I refused to be part of that crowd that wants to enjoy leisure on a natural beach, as if it were the very Benidorm or Portaventura. There are beaches where capacity limits would be meaningless because there are no naturalized areas, but in the middle of the Ebro Delta, NO.

Fantastic experience: Huge beach super clean. Almost without people despite still being summer. The sand is nice and the water is great!
Negative experience: How can we fill our mouths saying that we have a natural park and allow all sorts of lunatics, both Spanish, European, and Catalan, to enter even the sand dunes? Anyone who wants to go should travel on foot or by bicycle; motor vehicles should stay out. What a shame for this country and for the human species that wherever they go, they leave a destructive trail.
Fantastic experience: Very large and long beach. There is sand in the middle and water on both sides, one side very shallow that barely covers and on the other side with waves that my daughter loved and we repeated. The only downside is that there are no showers to at least rinse your feet, on the second day we took a bottle of water to wash ourselves.
Fantastic experience: Perfect place but be careful, many vehicles get stuck in the sand of the beach where you drive.

Fantastic experience: Maravillosa playa virgen con muy poca gente y un chiringuito espléndido. Se aparca generalmente bien. La mejor playa de la zona para muchos de los enamorados de la zona. El atardecer es espectacular allí.
Positive experience: Recomendable,fácil acceso,parking , chiringuito y tranquilidad asegurada,faltan botes donde dejar tu la basura ,así que la traje a casa como debe ser.
Positive experience: Como paraje natural es muy bonito, playa a ambos lados, la interior tranquila, llana y con algas (algunas de ellas provocan un salpullido) y la exterior más brava. Metros y metros de arena y no masificada. Hay dos o tres bares-restaurantes repartidos. Si vas en coche debes pagar 4-5€, en bici puedes acceder gratuitamente

Fantastic experience: Adjectives would run out when trying to qualify it. It is much more than a beach because it actually has two faces; - One that faces the mouth of the Ebro with water as flat as a plate and shallow, perfect for walking with the water up to your knees - Another that faces the Mediterranean; With more waves and perfect for sunbathing and taking a dip (note that there are no lifeguards) In the middle; A walk on compact sandy ground, to stroll and enjoy one of the best sunsets in the world (And if you want, while having a drink because there is also a beach bar). What there isn't are hotels. Said: Enjoy it!!!

Fantastic experience: We loved this beach, space, cleanliness, water at 30 degrees. Despite the crowd, there was a feeling of freedom, there is room for everyone. Our dog also loved being able to swim with us. The parking was free.

Fantastic experience: Una extensa y bonita playa arenosa, ideal para pasear o pasar el día. Hay dos bandas de la playa por los dos lados. Un lugar único e ideal para los surfistas ya que hay bastante viento. Fácil aparcamiento.
Fantastic experience: Un lugar fenomenal para practicar deportes acuáticos principalmente kite surf. Tiene área de Parking
Fantastic experience: Beautiful, unique, pure nature this kilometer-long land arm of the Ebro Delta Natural Park that has the bay of Alfaques on one side and the open Mediterranean on the other. In the bay, activities such as surfing, kitesurfing, and windsurfing are carried out... The open sea beach, being wild, does not have a flag or lifeguard.
Fantastic experience: Trabucador beach, 10 km from La Ràpita, is one of the most representative beaches of the Ebro delta. It is a wild beach that allows bathing in two seas, in open water and in the bay sea. This is due to what is called the Trabucador bar or isthmus, a large strip of land that connects with the Banya peninsula, further south. The waters inside the bay are shallow, ideal for family bathing and practicing water sports such as kitesurfing or windsurfing. The beach is known for the sunsets that can be observed, which are unique in Catalonia.
Fantastic experience: Fuimos en plan familiar con niños pequeños. Unos 3 km antes del final hay un parking gratuito para coches. El camino es de tierra pero facil acceso. La playa a la izquierda queda el mar abierto ( muy limpio y poco profundo ) a la derecha Delta algunas algas, poca profundidad y mar siempre calmado. Ideal para tablas de paddle surf y similares. Muy recomendable para niños. Arena muy limpia y bien cuidada

Fantastic experience: Es tranquilo, se puede venir en familia. Puedes traer tu mascota y realizar actividades de Kitesurf si te gusta.

Fantastic experience: Lugar fantástico: natural, genuino, tranquilo y relajante. Nos gusta caminar e ir contemplando el mar en ambos lados: uno que da hacia alta mar, y el otro muy plano y que hacia el fondo hay diversas poblaciones. Cada año vamos, y nos gusta caminar desde el punto más lejos donde se puede aparcar hasta bastante lejos. Antes se podía aparcar más adelante en el camino, y también se podía deambular hasta un mirador. Este año el límite para poder caminar es justo donde años atrás estaba el límite para estacionar los vehículos. Es una pena, ya que cada vez se podrá recorrer menos esta zona, pero lo que realmente da pena es que esta zona tan bella es probable que vaya siendo absorbida por el mar. Lastimosamente.

Positive experience: Bonita playa con la peculiaridad de tener el mar a ambos lados. Hay parking por 5€/día, y es tan amplia que puedes poner la sombrilla a distancia del resto. Hay posibilidad de hacer kayak y otras actividades. El único detalle (como en otras playas) es habitual encontrarte perros sueltos.

Fantastic experience: Just a few words ..... Wonderful nature
Fantastic experience: A must-see. For me, the most beautiful beach in Spain.

Fantastic experience: Amazing beach to see the tears of Saint Lawrence or the Perseids, as well as the starry sky. There are very few people at night, little light pollution, and almost no noise. Go there to admire the night sky!
Fantastic experience: Luxury
Fantastic experience: Peaceful and great for going with little ones
Positive experience: Space, wild, paradisiacal.... Magical place
Fantastic experience: We loved this beach, space, cleanliness, water at 30 degrees. Despite the crowd, there was a feeling of freedom, there is room for everyone. Our dog also loved being able to swim with us. The parking was free.

Fantastic experience: Beautifull place
Fantastic experience: Aun es un sitio casi salvaje,y toda la zona.
Fantastic experience: Maravilla ❤️
Fantastic experience: Zona de fácil aparcamiento, inmensa y preciosa, con mucha naturaleza y calma.
Fantastic experience: Sitio especial playa muy y poca afluencia de gente
Fantastic experience: Dos playas totalmente diferentes en un mismo lugar.
Fantastic experience: Lugar mágico. Playa tranquila por sus dimensiones, a un lado, calma total, al otro el Mediterráneo. Perfecta combinación.
Fantastic experience: Una zona impresionante tiene por un lado el mar abierto y por otro como mezcla entre mar y río y tienes que andar un trozo para que te cubra algo. Llegas a un punto que es solo paso para autorizados y debes aparcar en esa parte , es cómodo porque hay sitio enfrente y no se paga importante . Tienes un lado para bañarte calentita y sin olas y el otro con más olas y algo más fría . Muchos metros de mar , si quieres pasear y analizar toda la playa es precioso. No está aglomerada que es importante almenos a principios de julio.
Fantastic experience: Seeing the sea and right next to it the river, impressive!!! Nature knows how to coexist with its environment, and do we?
Fantastic experience: A magnificent place. The beach is the longest in the delta.
Fantastic experience: A picturesque place to watch the sunset.

Fantastic experience: Arriving from a vast sea of green through the fields, we reached the immense ️ a beautiful place where you can enjoy the ferocity of the waves and the tranquility of the water just a few steps apart. The parking area is very convenient and shaded, which is a plus since there is plenty of space.
Fantastic experience: Kilometric virgin beach with fine sand. Huge parking (overnight stay is not allowed). There are usually thousands of flamingos around. Very beautiful.
Fantastic experience: Spectacular this long beach in the Ebro Delta
Fantastic experience: Peace and tranquility
Fantastic experience: Dream beach. I recommend going to see the sunset.
Fantastic experience: A wonderful place. I recommend going at sunset, it's truly a spectacle. You are on a strip of land with sea on either side. The outer sea, with waves, and the inner sea is very calm and barely covers anything. It's a good spot for running.
Fantastic experience: Spectacular
Fantastic experience: Delta is delta! If you have the chance! Go!
Fantastic experience: Beautiful place.
Positive experience: I was surprised and really liked the beach. It is a narrow isthmus with access to 2 different beaches. There is the possibility to practice multiple water sports on them. The inner beach of the Delta has hardly any depth, with areas where you can walk on the water. The photos are amazing, especially at sunset. There is a paid parking in summer (on the sand) where you can go with a motorhome.

Fantastic experience: A magnificent beach in mid-September, we were alone in the world. It’s really worth the trip...
Positive experience: Good fishing haha
Fantastic experience: It's a beautiful place!! Highly recommended, very clean and calm waters
Fantastic experience: One of the best places to go to the beach with children, it is natural and quiet.
Fantastic experience: Beach with a lot of length but also width. Until a few months ago, there was a fee to park, but currently in September 2023 there isn't. Free access. Ideal for going with dogs. Also for children and for walking. You can see La Ràpita and the Mon Caro on the horizon. Water on both sides, one side is the sea and the other is a closed body of water.
Fantastic experience: Ideal and quiet. What more to ask?
Fantastic experience: Spectacular.
Fantastic experience: Excellent beach
Fantastic experience: It's an amazing natural landscape

Fantastic experience: The water is very warm in the summer, especially on the bay side. I didn’t have time to learn to kitesurf during this visit but would definitely like to try it next time I’m there.
Fantastic experience: Really nice views. Awesome beach. Fun in the sand.
Fantastic experience: It’s a delight to see this beach. Walking in the middle and seeing water on both the sides is just crazy and breath taking sight. Would highly recommend, especially for sunset
Fantastic experience: Breathtaking beach, amazingly long, sand very fine, dogs and nudism allowed all rear round, On one side you have the beach and on the other you have like a huge natural shallow pool, you can walk and walk and the water never passes above your hips. Ideal for families with children / disable people
Fantastic experience: One of the best places I've ever been!!!
