Playa del Carmen, Barbate

The 1.6-kilometer stretch of golden sand extends along the promenade, offering clear waters and moderate waves suitable for swimming and water activities.

The beach developed alongside Barbate's growth as a fishing town, particularly known for its traditional tuna fishing methods dating back several centuries.

Local fishermen maintain their traditions by using ancient fishing techniques called almadrabas, which are particularly active during the tuna migration season.

The beach provides comprehensive accessibility features, including adapted restrooms, amphibious chairs, and designated parking spaces for visitors with reduced mobility.

The beach sits between the Albufera port and the Barbate River mouth, creating distinct water conditions and marine ecosystems in different sections.
