Guardamar del Segura, Mediterranean coastal municipality in Vega Baja del Segura, Spain.

The municipality extends along 11 kilometers of white sand beaches bordered by dense pine forests at the mouth of the Segura River.

The area originated as a Phoenician colony named Herna, documented by Roman geographer Avienius in his geographical records of Mediterranean settlements.

The town maintains its position as the southernmost point in Spain where Valencian language continues in daily communication among local residents.

The Marina de las Dunas provides 498 moorings for vessels and offers maritime services along with facilities for water sports activities.

The natural defense system of sand dunes along the coast required extensive pine tree planting in 1900 to prevent sand from covering the town.
