Playa de San Ginés, Mediterranean beach in La Azohía, Spain
Playa de San Ginés stretches along the Cartagena coastline, mixing sandy sections with pebbles and backed by palm trees that offer shade. The beach borders a small fishing village where traditional boats are still kept near the water's edge.
This beach developed from a traditional fishing settlement that has sustained itself through maritime activities for centuries. Its position near the Muelle Maestro Romero marina reflects the area's long connection to seafaring.
The village of La Azohía grew around fishing, and this tradition still shapes daily life along the shore. Local restaurants serve daily catches prepared using recipes passed down through generations.
The beach offers showers, restrooms, lifeguard service, and marked parking areas with accessible pathways for visitors with limited mobility. Morning or evening visits work best if you prefer fewer crowds and gentler sun conditions.
The water sits within a protected marine reserve, offering clear visibility for observing Mediterranean sea life in its natural setting. This protected status means the ecosystem remains relatively intact, making it a good spot for quietly watching fish and other marine creatures.
