How to get to and what to expect from Cala de Finestrat beach

To begin, we will tell you how to get to Cala de Finestrat, although it is actually very easy: you can even enter the name in your GPS and the navigation will take you directly to this beach. If you prefer to look for it on your own, just head south of Benidorm, either by car or by public transport (there are bus lines and a Tram Metropolitano stop nearby). As a point of reference, it will take about 40 minutes from the city of Alicante, either by the AP-7 or the N-332.

This is a blue flag beach, quiet and sandy, with a sea ideal for swimming and playing. It is not a small cove, but not a large beach either, which makes it cozy and accessible. On one side there is a small hill that helps protect the beach from the winds and also generates a calmer swell. On this beach you will find all the necessary services and a spectacular beach bar to make your days at Playa de la Cala de Finestrat a luxury.

Services, restaurants and family atmosphere

This beach is ideal for families, as it is perfectly accessible and has all the services we usually look for on a beach: lifeguard, umbrellas, tranquility and fun, including children’s play areas for the little ones. On the beach you will find the Modesto beach bar, a fantastic option for eating and having a cocktail. If you prefer to get away from the sea a little, across the street you will find many gastronomic options for all tastes and budgets. A good plan may be to eat rice and then have an ice cream while walking along the promenade…

Near the beach of Cala de Finestrat there are shops and supermarkets for any need that may arise, as well as several leisure options, with live music in some bars, yoga classes, workshops for all ages and markets facing the sea. It is an excellent area to relax and enjoy life.
