Playa de Capicorb, Mediterranean beach in Alcalà de Xivert, Spain
Playa de Capicorb is a Mediterranean beach between two residential areas featuring sections of pebbles mixed with sand. A coastal road runs parallel to the shoreline, providing parking and access to dining options along the water's edge.
The area transformed from a small fishing settlement into a beach destination as tourism grew in the Valencia region during the 1970s. This shift shaped the coastline and created the mix of structures visible today.
The shoreline reflects how fishing traditions have adapted alongside modern beach life in this part of the coast. Local families and visitors now share the same waters that sustained the community for generations.
The beach offers parking areas and a nearby road with restaurants, but bring water since drinking fountains are not available. The setup with parking close to the shoreline makes it straightforward to park and walk directly to the water.
This beach welcomes dogs year-round, making it one of the few pet-friendly coastal areas in the region with good water quality. This feature appeals to visitors who want to bring their animals along.
