Beaches

Next to Postiguet Beach in Alicante is the famous Cocó Beach, ideal to go with the family and enjoy its warm waters and soft sand. This beach, with views of the Castle of Santa Barbara, the Port of Alicante, the Albufereta and the Cabo de la Huerta, is not as well known as the Postiguet beach, which allows it to be a perfect place to disconnect in full city of Alicante, not so overcrowded. The Cocó beach has all the advantages of a large beach despite the fact that it is a small beach, but being located in the center of the city, it is fully accessible on foot, by public transport or by car, as well as free parking, there are also several private parkings 5 ​​minutes from the beach. Being a breakwater of rocks, the beach of Cocó is ideal for diving, with its clean and crystal clear waters, it is not unusual to see crabs and a variety of fish. If you travel in June, at the end of the bonfires celebration, the famous fireworks that illuminate and light Alicante's sky at night are thrown from here, so enjoying them from your sand becomes something unique that you can not miss. In addition, next to the beach there is a sailing school where you can rent boats or kayaks in which you can travel along the coast of Alicante to discover its most spectacular spots.
