La Patacona Beach, Mediterranean urban beach in Alboraia, Spain
La Patacona extends over 1 km along the Mediterranean coast and features soft golden sand with a width of about 110 meters. The beach combines a smooth sand slope with direct water access suitable for different types of swimmers.
The area transformed from farmland to an urban beach destination during the later 20th century. This change was part of Valencia's broader coastal development after the mid-1900s.
The promenade reflects Spanish coastal life, with restaurants serving traditional Valencian dishes and Mediterranean food. Visitors experience local eating culture in a relaxed seaside setting here.
The beach offers summer assistance like amphibious chairs and flotation aids plus special support for visitors with limited mobility. Bring sun protection and check water conditions before entering, especially for longer stays.
Early mornings bring horse riders galloping along the waterline while fishermen ready their boats for the day. This dawn activity reveals a quieter side of the beach before the day begins.
