Platja de la Barraca, Shingle beach in Javea, Spain
The 900-meter-long beach features a combination of gravel, pebbles, and rocks, surrounded by tall cliffs that create a natural protective barrier.
Traditional white and blue fishermen's houses line the beach, reflecting the maritime heritage of local families who used them during fishing seasons.
The proximity to Isla del Portitxol, designated as a Cultural Interest Site in 2018, provides opportunities for archaeological exploration and underwater activities.
The beach offers two access routes: a direct car path through Cabo la Nao road and a walking trail from Mirador de la Cruz del Portitxol.
The clear waters reach depths of 21 meters near the shore, creating excellent conditions for scuba diving and observing Mediterranean marine life.
