Beach at a glance
What it is like
Playa Ventanicas is a broad grey-sand beach forming part of Mojácar’s developed coastal frontage. Its 502 metres in length and 80 metres in width create an orderly space beside the seafront promenade, between Playa de la Cueva del Lobo and Playa de la Venta del Bancal. Moderate swell accompanies a beach with easy access and connections. It is reached on foot or by car via the AL-5105, with urban and interurban buses, foot showers and a designated surfing area.
