Playa de Almardá, Natural beach in Sagunto, Spain.
Playa de Almardá stretches for several kilometers along the Mediterranean coast, showing a mix of fine sand, pebbles, and natural dune formations. The shoreline is shaped by an extended dune system that separates the beach from inland areas.
The Almardá shoreline has maintained its natural state through the centuries, preserving the original coastal landscape characteristic of the Valencia region. This continuity shapes the beach's appearance to this day.
Local people use this stretch of Mediterranean shoreline as a meeting place, especially during warmer months when the beach becomes a social hub.
The beach is accessible from the N-340 road through marked pathways, with parking areas and basic facilities available mainly from June to September. Outside the peak season, visitor services and amenities become more limited.
The dune system reaches considerable width and creates a natural buffer that shields the beach experience from built structures. This protective system is relatively uncommon in the region, making the location ecologically valuable.
