Facts and practical information

The Almadraba beach of Alicante is a small beach of rocks and dark sand that presents a high degree of occupation due to its calm waters. It is located between the Albufereta beach, to the south and from which it is separated by a small yacht club, and Cabo de las Huertas, to the north. It is located next to large buildings and is easily accessible. Due to the fact that it is small it does not have night surveillance, so it is a place for drinking and drinking, especially in summer.

La Almadraba is a unique beach. Underneath, a subway river of fresh water flows into the sea, which makes it look like a muddy beach.
