Junta de Los Mares, Golden sand beach in Puerto de Mazarrón, Spain
Junta de Los Mares is a golden sand beach where the harbour area meets the open coast of Puerto de Mazarrón. It runs 400 metres along the water with a fairly even width of about 50 metres, forming a sand strip between the working port and the sea.
This location grew from a traditional fishing settlement that developed along the coast over centuries. The harbor and beach developed together as part of the area's maritime growth and connection to the sea.
The beach sits beside the working fishing harbour of Puerto de Mazarrón, where the daily routines of local fishermen remain part of the scene. Boats and fishing gear are visible along the port, and the name Junta de Los Mares refers to the meeting of the waters where the harbour channel meets the open sea.
The beach is easy to reach from the port area and has basic facilities like showers and restrooms available. Visiting early in the morning or late in the afternoon tends to be more pleasant than during midday hours.
Steady northeast winds blow across this stretch of coast, making conditions ideal for windsurfing and kitesurfing. Many locals know it as a spot where wind patterns are more predictable than on nearby beaches.
