The Granada’s coast has precious beaches where the sun and the sea, together with the weather attract visitors and offer them warm days the whole year trough.
They are beaches of contrast where you can choose between the peace of solitary coves or the crowded tourist beaches. You can enjoy long walks along the seaside or spend long hours sunbathing listening to the sound of the waves. Another possibility is to practise one of the numerous marine or aireal sports as surfing, windsurfing, sailing, diving, paragliding, and so on.
Almuñécar y Motril have those beaches full of comforts offered by large tourist resort: La Herradura, San Cristóbal, el Tesorillo or Velilla (Almuñécar) Calahonda, Poniente, Granada, Torrenueva y Carchuna (Motril). All of them are ideal for practising marine sports, such as diving and fishing.
If you are looking for tranquillity, you have a wide choice of sheltered and solitary coves: in Salobreña the beach La Guardia and the natural coves El Caletón or El Pargo.
For enthusiasts of naturism the beaches of Cantarriján and El Muerto in Almuñécar, La Joya in Motril, and El Ruso in Albuñol, offer a truly secluded paradise.
