Environmental estimate

Conditions less favourable for jellyfish arrival

What it is like

Characteristics published by official sources

Playa de Agua Amarga stands out for its great length and for the contrast between its natural surroundings and the proximity of the Port of Alicante. It stretches for 2,600 metres among pebbles, rock, gravel and golden sand, although it is only 2 metres wide; Cala de los Borrachos forms part of the same complex. It has moderate waves and an area designated for pets. Pedestrian access is from the N-332, with an urban bus service, litter bins, cleaning and anchorage associated with the Real Club de Regatas de Alicante.
