Playa de Las Viudas

Playa de Las Viudas is a small urban beach with golden sand situated directly along the Mediterranean coast in Peniscola. It occupies a sheltered cove framed by natural rock formations on both sides, creating an intimate waterfront space.

This beach sits below Peniscola Castle, a medieval fortress that has overlooked the coast since the 13th century. The proximity to the fortress shaped how this coastal area was used throughout the centuries.

The name reflects local stories tied to the town, and today people use this space to find moments of calm near the water while staying within the urban setting.

The beach provides showers, waste bins, and cleaning services for visitors. Access from the town center is straightforward, making it easy to visit at any time of year.

Local fishermen continue to launch small boats from the waters here and maintain their traditional fishing practices throughout the season. This everyday activity gives the beach an authentic rhythm tied to maritime work.
