Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Playa del Palmer (Almeria) 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 del Palmer (Almeria) 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 del Palmer 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.

Extremely dirty beach. There were jellyfish and was not able to get in the water. There are NO bathrooms anywhere and people just go wherever they can. So be ready so see all kinds of garbage or toilet paper around the rocks. The parking is extremely limited and there are no mesh nets to cover the mountain . There are a lot of small rocks on the ground , which means that rocks fall often. ALSO Beware the yellow line. Its still there even though the pebble might cover the line. The Civil Guard gave me a ticket. No happy! Overall not worth the hassle! Never going back!

A small beach, in a very nice corner and a little hidden. You have to arrive early to get a spot because by mid-morning it is already packed with people. The floor is made of china, you can walk barefoot and the good thing is that no sand or anything sticks to you. The only bad thing about this beach is that there is often garbage because of the irresponsible people who come to leave their shit, but that's like on all beaches. Many people come to snorkel, you can see small blacksmiths and other small fish.

The best beach in the western area of Almería. Better than any area of Almería capital or Roquetas. The bad thing is that it is small and fills up very quickly.

Beach with small stones and not so cold waters, it covers quickly and contains many fish a few meters from the shore, so many that you can touch them at times. There are small ones that are at the top of the water and others that are slightly larger at the bottom. Very transparent and clean waters. From 6:30 p.m. in September, shadows begin to appear due to the altitude of the hotel.
