Benidorm has two large beaches and several small ones (nearby). Everyone can get their money’s worth here, because the beaches each have their own character. We list the beaches in and around Benidorm.
Playa de Levante
Levante beach is the most famous beach in Benidorm. The beach is 2 kilometers long and has enough facilities to make it a great day. Playa de Levante consists of golden soft sand and you can easily put your towel somewhere if a beach bed is not within the budget. On this beach you also have a special area for wheelchair users.
Playa de Poniente
Playa de Poniente is the largest sandy beach in Benidorm. The beach is no less than 2.5 kilometers long. On the beach there are enough beds and umbrellas for rent at affordable prices. Next to Playa de Poniente is the Paseo Maritimo, a beautiful well-maintained promenade. So if you don’t feel like sand between your toes, you can take a nice walk here and still enjoy the beach.
Cala Mal Pas
The beach of Cala Mal Pas can be found between the beaches of Playa de Levante and Playa de Poniente. The beach is about 120 meters long and much quieter than the two larger beaches in Benidorm. The water here is also clear and not too deep. From the beach you also have a good view of Benidorm island, the symbol of Benidorm: l’Illa de Benidorm.
Cala Almadrava
The beach of Cala Almadrava consists of a combination of sand and rocks. The beach is about 100 meters long. Don’t expect many facilities here, except for a lifeguard in the summer months. The water here is shallow and crystal clear. It is advisable to bring a snorkel set. It is good to know that clothing is optional at Cala Almadrava.

Cala Tio Ximo
The beach of Cala Tio Ximo feels just as authentic and special as Cala Almadrava. So you are also dealing with sand and boulders here.
