Playa de Los Naufragos

Playa de Los Naufragos is a Mediterranean beach in Spain with golden sand stretching about 400 meters along the shoreline. The coast forms small bays that offer good spots for swimming and soaking up the sun.

The beach got its name from old shipwrecks that happened near this coast, marking it as important in local maritime history. These wrecks left their mark on the place through its name and remind people of the risks ships once faced here.

The beach connects to Torrevieja's salt-making past, as salt lakes are visible from certain spots along the shore. This heritage shapes how locals view the coastline and what makes the place feel tied to centuries of local work.

The beach has showers, toilets, and sunbeds for rent, with parking available nearby. Being close to the city center makes it easy to reach and explore the surrounding areas.

The water here is remarkably shallow and gradual, making it ideal for families with small children. This gentle slope of the seabed sets this bay apart from other beaches in the area.
