Playa del Lance Nuevo

Lance Nuevo Beach stretches approximately 400 meters along the Mediterranean coast with dark sand and calm waters, featuring a combination of sandy and pebble areas that create a diverse shoreline perfect for family visits and swimming activities.

The beach derives its name from traditional fishing practices called 'lance' that were historically performed near the old breakwater, reflecting the area's long-standing maritime heritage and connection to local fishing communities over several centuries.

Local beachgoers often enjoy traditional Andalusian cuisine at nearby chiringuitos while summer festivals occasionally feature regional music and dance performances, blending Mediterranean beach culture with authentic Spanish coastal traditions and community celebrations.

The beach offers complete facilities including showers, footbaths, sunbed and umbrella rentals, children's play area, and over 100 parking spaces with easy access via the AL-5107 road and public bus connections to surrounding areas.

Lance Nuevo has earned Blue Flag certification for its exceptional water quality and environmental management standards, while its protected breakwater creates consistently calm swimming conditions even during windy Mediterranean weather patterns.
