Playas de Xivares is simply amazing! It's best to visit between 10 and 16h to make the most of the tides. It's a great place to relax and take in the beautiful scenery.

This beach is an ideal spot for families to spend time together. There is a section of the beach that is perfect for surfing, making it a great destination for those who love to ride the waves. The atmosphere is peaceful and serene, making it a great place to relax and enjoy the sun.

A great choice for families. It's spacious and offers plenty of room for kids to play and explore. The sand is soft and inviting, and the waters are perfect for swimming and other activities. There's plenty of room to relax and soak up the sun. It's a great spot to take the whole family.

That place is the perfect destination for those seeking a relaxing escape. The sand is especially inviting when the low tide falls during the day's central hours, as it did when the photos were taken. In this case, the beach stretches 800 meters long, when Xivares Beach meets Peña María (also known as Xivares 2). The length is considerably reduced when the high tide arrives. As for amenities, the beach offers showers, rescue services, toilets, plenty of parking (for a small fee of €2.40), and several beach bars. There is also a recreational area for those who want to spend a few hours here. Lastly, visitors can take a stroll through the area on the green path.

I don't particularly care for the beach. There's nothing special about it; just sand, water, and a lot of people. It's too crowded and noisy for my taste.
