Playa de Finestrat, Mediterranean beach in Finestrat, Spain.
Playa de Finestrat is a sandy beach on the Costa Blanca, stretching about 270 meters along the coast. The shore is framed by rocky outcrops called La Barreta and Xoriguer, creating a defined cove with soft sand.
The only historical structure the sources record near the beach is the Torre d'Aguiló, a 16th-century watchtower on the hill above the cove. It belonged to the coastal watch network of the Marina Baixa, and the beach itself is documented under the alternative name Cala de Morales.
Locals also call it Cala de Morales, and the sixteenth-century Torre d'Aguiló stands on the hill above the cove, a remnant of the coastal watch system. The beach lies within the municipality of Finestrat, in the Marina Baixa district, and is the town's only beach.
The beach has lifeguard services, sports facilities, restrooms, and wheelchair access for visitors. Expect variable wind and weather conditions, especially during warmer months when conditions can change throughout the day.
On the hill above the beach stands the Torre d'Aguiló, a 16th-century watchtower. It belonged to the coastal defence network against pirate raids, and its silhouette is visible from the sand. The beach is also known as Cala de Morales.
