Port Saplaya South Beach, Golden sand beach in Alboraia, Spain.
Port Saplaya South Beach is a golden sand beach in Alboraia that stretches 600 meters along the Mediterranean coast with a width of approximately 90 meters. The shoreline slopes gently into the water, creating shallow areas perfect for swimming and wading.
The beach emerged alongside the Port Saplaya residential and maritime district during Alboraia's coastal development in recent decades. This growth transformed the area from a quieter coastline into a popular destination for locals and visitors.
The area draws both local families and visitors who enjoy seaside dining and socializing, with nearby establishments offering traditional regional beverages and fresh seafood throughout the day.
The beach has showers, changing rooms, and lifeguards on duty during summer, with parking available nearby. The area is flat and easy to walk along, making it accessible for families and visitors of all abilities.
The beach sits at the mouth of the Carraixet ravine, whose recreational zones lie just inland and draw summer crowds to the sand. The port entrance of the Port Saplaya marina cuts the shoreline in two, so this southern stretch is reached from the residential quarter rather than from the northern beach.
