Costa Blanca has numerous sandy beaches, all of which carry the EEC blue flag, ensuring pollution free bathing. Guardamar is probably one of the best beaches in the area.

Guardamar beach is composed of the finest white sand and the smell of the pine trees which surrounds the beach makes for an unforgettable experience. The beach runs as far as the eye can see and is so large that even in peak season, there are days when it seems almost deserted.

At 11 kilometres long there are numerous isolated spots where you can spend the day by the sea.

Swept during the season on a daily basis, Guardamar beach is possibly one of the best manicured in all of Spain.
