Platja de Ponent

Platja de Ponent is a sandy beach along the western coast of Benidorm that stretches for about three kilometers. Clear water and a palm-lined promenade run the entire length of the shoreline.

In the 1950s, this stretch remained undeveloped and bordered by the main road to Alicante. The small town of Benidorm could be seen from the Canfali rocks at that time.

Local people use this beach as a gathering place for daily activities and maintain traditional Spanish seaside habits. The area retains a more relaxed character compared to the busier tourist zones elsewhere in the city.

The beach has showers, lifeguard stations, umbrella rentals, and ramps for easy access along its length. These facilities make it convenient for visitors of all abilities.

Archaeological findings behind this beach reveal one of the earliest human settlement sites in the region. These ancient traces show how long people have inhabited this area.
