'The Jewel in the Costa Blanca Crown'

Teulada Moraira Costa Blanca Beaches

Teulada Moraira is home to some of the most fantastic beaches the Costa Blanca has to offer. As well as soft, gentle, sandy beaches that are ideal for children, Teulada Moraira also has rocky coves and inlets perfect for active snorkelers and scuba divers and an abundance of water-sports for the more active tourist.

The coastal area of Teulada Moraira is home to some of Spain’s cleanest beaches. Awarded blue-flag status, they provide the holidaymaker with a wide-range of beach holiday options: family friendly, sandy beaches, ideal for young children, to water-skiing and jet-skiing to wind-surfing and sailing. It is possible to explore each of Teulada Moraira’s beaches and leave with a new and exciting holiday experience.

The list below details the beaches along the Teulada Moraira coast. Be sure to try each one and pick a favourite: you will definitely want to go back, time and time again.

La Cala is a small rocky beach, with the most crystal clear waters on the Costa Blanca. Best accessed by boat, although a beautiful walk along the cliff path can also take you to the beach, it is located at the most northerly point of the Teulada Moraira coast. It is an excellent beach for a quite afternoon on a sun-lounger reading your favourite holiday novel.Moving south, the next beach is at El Portet Moraira. It is a wide and shallow cove with a gentle sloping beach: 50 feet out from the shoreline, the water will just be lapping at your knees. The shallow beach and lack of waves make this a firm favourite for young children. Situated directly behind the beach, is a modern restaurant catering for all tastes. It serves great fresh fish and a wide-range of refreshing, cooling drinks. For the real food fan, El Portet Moraira has a two-star Michelin restaurant: Le Dauphin. It is an absolute must for an early evening meal, sat on the terrace above the beach, enjoying a crisp Chardonnay as you take in the view across the stunning bay while, in the distance, the sun sets dramatically behind the mighty Penon d’Ifach rock. El Portet Moraira is located a five-minute drive from the centre of Moraira. With great facilities and ample car-parking, it is an excellent choice for a great day out.

Next along the Teulada Moraira coast is Playa D’Ampolla. One of the four Moraira beaches awarded a blue flag award. In keeping with the blue flag standards, the Playa D’Ampolla is kept exceptionally clean and tidy. It is a golden, sandy beach and is the largest and most popular beach in Teulada Moraira. Families love it for its soft and golden sand, sunbathers love it for its wide and deep expanse and water enthusiasts love it for its array of sporting facilities. Amongst its facilities, it has a great beach-bar, loungers and umbrellas, showers and bathroom facilities and is patrolled by Red Cross lifeguards.

Further along the coast is Platgetes, which comprises two small beaches: one is shallow, with golden sand, whilst the other is rocky with an abundance of small, sea-life swimming in its inlets and coves: great for young children to explore. A promenade links the two beaches and provides excellent photo opportunities. The beaches are equipped with a parking area, a restaurant and a Red Cross platform where a life-guard keeps a safe watch across the beaches.

At the most southerly point of the Teulada Moraira coast is the last beach: L’Andrago. It is a pebble-beach, with large boulders dotted here and there: ideal for laying out a towel, lying back and topping up your tan. The coves and inlets at the edges of the beach are an excellent location to practice your scuba-diving and snorkeling. Famous, locally for being a very quiet beach, it is the perfect location for a quiet afternoon of relaxing, stress-free sunbathing. Additionally, parking is available and a number of small restaurants are just a five-minute walk away.
