Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Playa de Curumbico (Granada) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Playa de Curumbico (Granada) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Playa de Curumbico for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.

During the months of July and August, the beach can get quite crowded. However, it is a typical Almuñécar beach with small stones and offers some great beach bars to grab a bite to eat.

The black sand beach may be small in size, but it is undoubtedly a stunning sight to behold. The unique color of the sand adds to the beauty of the beach, making it a must-visit destination. Despite its size, the beach offers a peaceful and serene atmosphere, perfect for relaxation and unwinding. Overall, it is a beautiful gem that should not be missed.

4 Frustrating

The beach area with restaurants nearby is not as popular as the next one, as it appears abandoned with unfinished building projects looming above it since the Spanish economic crisis in 2008. During the day, the area is desolate and the buildings remain empty, which can be a bit eerie. However, the proximity to The Devil's Tower makes the area unsafe after nightfall, as it is known to be occupied by Satan worshippers, especially on Halloween and full moon nights. It's best to avoid the entire area during these times.
