Blue Flags

Blue Flags are awarded to beaches which have achieved a high standard of cleanliness and offer good facilities.
Bolnuevo

Bolnuevo’s long, sandy beach is backed by surreal rock formations (see Ciudad Encantada de Bolnuevo, Bolnuevo), and has plenty of cafés and other facilities. To really get away from it all, head south down the coast, where there are dozens of secret coves.
Cala del Pino

On the Mar Menor side of La Manga, this popular beach with fine sand looks out over the islets dotting the inland sea. All kinds of facilities (including a marina) are close at hand.
Calabardina

Tucked around a tiny bay with crystal-clear waters, pretty little Calabardina is a charming and barely developed resort, boasting several quiet beaches and rocky coves.
Calblanque

Calblanque is the most beautiful stretch of coastline on the Costa Blanca, with golden beaches, secluded coves, cliff walks and forested hills. It has few facilities, so bring picnic things and plenty of water. Take care: the current can be dangerous.
Calblanque

The Regional Park of Calblanque is one of Murcia’s best-kept secrets. Just a few minutes’ drive from the resorts of the Mar Menor, this stunning stretch of unspoilt coastline boasts hidden coves and gorgeous sandy beaches with perfectly clear waters.
Calblanque

The beaches of the Regional Park of Calblanque are the best in the whole of the Costa Blanca. Choose from sandy stretches, or discover your own private cove.
Cap de la Nau (Cabo de la Nao)

Rounding off the southern end of the bay at Xàbia, the Cap de la Nau (Cabo de la Nao) is dotted with well-marked miradors (viewing points). The Portitxol mirador is especially lovely.
Cap de la Nau (Cabo de la Nao)

This is the epitome of the Costa Blanca: a rugged cape with tiny, magical coves, many accessible only by boat, and sheer cliffs offering magnificent views along the whole coastline. While parts are covered with villas, there are still some beautiful undisturbed corners to explore.
Cap de Sant Antoni

The lighthouse at the tip of the windy Cape of Sant Antoni affords gorgeous views over wave-battered cliffs and the pretty resort of Xàbia (Jávea) curled around the bay.
