Playa de Levante

About This Beach

Playa de Levante in Benalmádena stretches along the eastern coast with fine golden sand perfect for families seeking a comfortable beach day. This urban beach offers excellent facilities including showers, restrooms, beach bars, and sunbed rentals, making it incredibly convenient for visitors. The waters are typically calm and clear, ideal for swimming and safe for children, though the beach can get quite crowded during summer months and weekends. Visit early morning or late afternoon to avoid peak crowds and enjoy the most pleasant temperatures. The beach sits adjacent to the famous Puerto Marina, one of Europe's most awarded marinas, where you can explore shops, restaurants, and nightlife. The nearby Sea Life aquarium and cable car to Mount Calamorro add family-friendly attractions within walking distance. While not particularly suited for snorkeling due to limited marine life, the calm conditions make it perfect for paddleboarding and other gentle water activities. The promenade offers lovely evening strolls with stunning Mediterranean sunset views.
