Cala de la Palmera, Sandy and rocky beach in Cabo de las Huertas, Alicante, Spain
Cala de la Palmera is a small beach along Cabo de las Huertas cove, combining fine sand with rocky outcrops. The shoreline stretches roughly 98 meters long and about 5 meters wide along the Mediterranean.
The beach was part of Alicante's traditional fishing grounds, where fishermen cast their nets for generations. The rock formations have shaped this coastal section since ancient times.
Locals come here to swim and snorkel, keeping alive traditional Mediterranean coastal practices passed down through generations. The rocky sections attract divers who want to explore the waters below the surface.
Visitors can reach the beach by bus, tram, or car with parking available nearby. The rocky sections require water shoes, and the best time for swimming is during calm weather.
The clear waters allow visitors to spot fish and other marine creatures without diving equipment. This natural clarity makes the spot favored by those interested in underwater photography and nature watching.
