Playa de San Juan – Alicante’s Endless Sandy Beach
Playa de San Juan is one of the most beautiful and best-known beaches on the Costa Blanca. Stretching for several kilometres, it offers fine golden sand, crystal-clear water and plenty of space to relax. It can be reached easily from our holiday apartment by car, tram or bus and is the perfect destination for a full day at the beach.

Our personal tip
If possible, visit the beach outside the busiest midday hours. In the morning and late afternoon the atmosphere is particularly relaxed, and the light is perfect for a long walk along the shoreline.
