Have been on this beach over the years and found it excellent but this time lots of seaweed which was never cleared at night also decking is in need of repair and quite dangerous. Having said that much less crowded than Levante. Lovely prom erected since we were last in Benidorm.

Since we were last in Benidorm, the new promenade has been completed and the coloured slabs are brilliant. All shades of similar colours blending into each other. They have made a great job of it.

Less crowded than Lavante beach and close to the old town/tapas alley/shops. A pleasant walk from the hustle of central Benidorm

Everything you need on a beach, very very clean, with pedalos, watersports or just lounging. Sunbeds and parasols 4Euros each, and the guy walking around selling drinks friendly, no hassles. Cola was 3 Euros and was pretty cold.

Walked over from the Levante side to this beach which I think is much nicer. It seems to be the Spanish side and in the evening is busy with people promenading up and down to the marina. The beach is quieter and has been given a facelift, lovely to sit under the shady section at the back of the beach.

As we stayed in the mar Blau we just crossed over to use the spot there. It was cleaned everyday so no rubbish. There was a bit of seagrass, but you could skirt round that. Super for kids as its all sandy so no stones for their little feet (and mine!) We did see a couple of jellyfish though but... More

a bit more quieter, i liked it here, plenty of sunbeds on the beach, not bad for a day, 4 euros for a bed and then 4 for umberella, not so many places by the beach for eating, but took our packed lunch, and wine, in a plastic bottle, very clean area, ok for a spot of sunbathing,

Very clean and pleasant beach. Great facilities and well worth a visit from its sister beach. ( Lavante)

best beach in benidorm as levante can have rocks in the sea near rinco delux area. poniente in old town of benidorm which is much more spanish and relaxed atomosphere . finer sand always seems to be calmer sea poniente is more of a bay than levante beach. lovely doves birds near by which u can feed but some seeds...
