Playa del Esparrelló, Nudist beach in La Vila Joiosa, Spain.
Playa del Esparrelló is a beach in La Vila Joiosa on Spain's Mediterranean coast that stretches about 222 meters with a combination of white pebbles and sand. The shoreline is bordered by tall cliffs on both sides that drop steeply toward the water.
For centuries this cove remained in its natural state and served as a sheltered spot where local fishermen worked. Over time it became officially designated as a naturist beach, transforming into a different kind of gathering place.
This clothing-optional beach allows visitors to experience a lifestyle choice rooted in Mediterranean traditions where people feel free from everyday social restrictions. The place creates a welcoming environment for those seeking a different kind of coastal experience.
You can reach the beach by walking paths from nearby parking areas, with Carrer Suecia street near Hotel Montiboli serving as a useful landmark for orientation. The walk is straightforward and the access points are clearly marked along the route.
The position of the beach nestled between two cliff faces creates unusually clear water that makes snorkeling and underwater exploration rewarding. This geographical setting keeps the water clearer than at many neighboring coastal areas.
