La Malagueta Beach
The city beach — golden sand a 10-minute walk from the centre.

Beaches
A string of coves in a former fishing village, famous for espetos.
East of the centre, Pedregalejo keeps the feel of the old fishing barrio: low whitewashed houses, a car-free promenade and a row of legendary chiringuitos. This is where locals come for grilled sardines and a sunset beer. Calm, family-friendly little coves between breakwaters.
