Spain's Unknown Beaches
Spain is surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, with one of the most beautiful coastlines in the world. You’ve likely heard of the city beaches in Barcelona, Valencia, and the Costa Brava, but here are some of the country’s greatest hidden beaches worth discovering.
Calo des Moro, Mallorca
Calo des Moro is a hidden gem best known for its warm, crystal-clear water. Tucked between high cliffs, it offers natural protection from the sea and an idyllic, secluded setting. If you’re craving island vibes, this beach is a must.
Playa de Guayedra, Canary Islands
For privacy and adventure, head to Playa de Guayedra in the Canary Islands. Far from the crowds, this beach is perfect for playing in the waves. Lizards often sunbathe on the rocks and may curiously approach your picnic. Continue past the stones to find the sandy, hidden stretch of beach.
Monsul Beach, Almería
Monsul Beach in Almería is famous as a filming location for Indiana Jones. Accessible by shuttle bus from San José, the beach boasts dramatic volcanic rock formations and sparkling waters. It’s both cinematic and serene, making it a stunning day trip destination.
Cala Estreta, Costa Brava
Cala Estreta is a naturalist beach that offers true seclusion. Reached by a 30-minute hike, it rewards visitors with cliff-jumping spots and quiet coastlines. Known as a nudist beach, it’s a destination for ultimate relaxation and an adventurous spirit.
Cíes Islands, Galicia
Often called the “Spanish Caribbean,” the Cíes Islands boast turquoise waters and striking rock formations. Located on the Atlantic coast, the water can be brisk even in summer, but the tropical atmosphere makes it worth the visit.
