Platja del Baconer, Shingle beach in Ampolla, Spain

Platja del Baconer is a natural beach in L'Ampolla, Baix Ebre, lying in front of the neighbourhood of the same name between Platja dels Capellans to the west and Cala Maria to the east. It runs 290 metres long with an average width of 25 metres, made of sand, gravel and pebbles, and reddish cliffs frame its left end.

The beach lies in front of the Baconer neighbourhood of L'Ampolla, between Platja dels Capellans to the west and Cala Maria to the east. It is a natural beach of sand, gravel and pebbles, 290 metres long and 25 metres wide on average, framed by reddish cliffs at its left end. It forms part of the GR-92 long-distance footpath and has been awarded the 'Platges Verges' (Virgin Beaches) distinction by Ecologistes en Acció.

The beach takes its name from the Baconer neighbourhood it faces in L'Ampolla. It lies on the GR-92 long-distance footpath, so walkers pass through alongside bathers, and it holds the 'Platges Verges' (unspoilt beaches) award given by the environmental group Ecologistes en Acció.

The beach has parking and daily cleaning, and it forms part of the GR-92 long-distance footpath, so it can be reached on foot along the coast between Platja dels Capellans and Cala Maria. The red cliffs at the left end mark the northern limit of the 290-metre sandy-gravel shore.

The beach holds the 'Platges Verges' (Wild Beaches) award from Ecologistes en Acció, a distinction for undeveloped shorelines. It lies between Platja dels Capellans to the west and Cala Maria to the east, and the long-distance GR-92 coastal footpath runs through it.
