Playa de Portús, Mediterranean beach in Cartagena, Spain.
Description
Playa de Portús is a Mediterranean beach stretching approximately 350 meters along the Cartagena coastline with a sandy and gravelly surface. It averages around 16 meters wide and offers a mix of textures underfoot as you walk along the shore.
History
This beach sits along the coast of Cartagena, a city shaped by centuries of Mediterranean trade and naval history. The seaside location has been central to the city's identity and development.
Culture
Local families gather here during summer evenings to share meals and spend time together in a relaxed seaside setting.
Practical
The beach has wooden walkways, adapted toilets, and designated parking for visitors with reduced mobility. These facilities make access easier, though conditions can vary with weather and the season.
Did you know?
The beach divides into two distinct areas: a public pebble section and Cala Morena, which connects to a naturist campsite. This separation gives the place different character in each area.
