The beach in the municipality that sees the most people is always abuzz with activity. It's the most popular beach around, and it's easy to see why.

A beachside stroll is the perfect way to take in the spectacular scenery and the calming sound of the sea. Whether you're looking for a romantic walk or just a peaceful getaway, this is the place to be.

Areal beach may seem like a paradise, but its turquoise waters are a mere illusion. The reality is that its beauty is short-lived and not worth the trip.

Bringing your furry friend to the beach can be a great experience. The area reserved for dogs is close to the church and is perfect for a day out. The only downside is that it can be quite windy, although it may not always be like that. Despite the breeze, it's still a great spot to take your pup for a walk.
