Platja de la Marquesa, Golden sand beach in Deltebre, Spain
Platja de la Marquesa is a beach in the Ebro Delta near Deltebre, stretching roughly 1150 meters with golden-colored sand and shallow waters. The shore is backed by natural vegetation and dunes rather than hotels or commercial buildings.
The Ebro Delta was historically shaped by rice farming for generations before environmental protection became the priority. Over time, agricultural use gave way to conservation efforts that established the delta as a protected natural area.
The beach serves as a meeting place for people who choose clothing-optional recreation, reflecting an open and accepting approach to body freedom. This lifestyle choice draws visitors from across Europe and beyond to this corner of the delta.
A parking area and a restaurant are available nearby, making it convenient for visitors. The limited commercial infrastructure means visitors should bring their own supplies for a longer stay.
Sand dunes extend into the water, creating natural barriers that form shallow lagoons behind them. These lagoons attract numerous bird species throughout the year, making the beach part of an important wildlife habitat.
