Playa de Las Salinas, Olive sand beach in Los Alcázares, Spain.
Playa de Las Salinas is a beach with olive-colored sand stretching about 1000 meters along the Mediterranean coast. The water is shallow and inviting, with sandy shores that fill with swimmers and sunbathers on warm days.
The beach takes its name from ancient salt flats that once supplied minerals for trade and food preservation throughout the Mediterranean region. This salty heritage shaped the area's economy for many centuries.
The beach serves as a gathering place where locals spend their days and maintain fishing traditions passed down through generations. Fresh seafood from daily catches shapes the regional cuisine that people here prepare and enjoy.
The beach has showers, restrooms, and rental equipment available at several points along the shore. Visitors should arrive early on warm days since it fills up quickly, and sun protection is essential.
The water here is influenced by the Mar Menor lagoon and has a special mineral composition. These particular conditions create habitats for marine life that you will not find elsewhere in the Mediterranean.
