Finestrat offers a delightful coastal escape in the Valencia Province. While the historic village sits inland against a mountain backdrop, its seaside area, Cala de Finestrat, is a popular beach destination. Here you'll find Finestrat's own charming beach, Platja de La Cala de Finestrat.
Platja de La Cala de Finestrat provides a family-friendly cove experience, known for its calmer atmosphere compared to the bustling beaches of nearby Benidorm. For those seeking more energy, Benidorm's highly visited Playa de Levante offers abundant activities. The expansive and world-famous Playa de Poniente is another excellent option, alongside the picturesque Playa Mal Pas nestled by Benidorm's Old Town.
Whether you prefer the relaxed ambiance of Platja de La Cala de Finestrat or the livelier shores nearby, this area caters to diverse beach preferences. Finestrat uniquely combines a peaceful beach holiday at La Cala with the chance to explore traditional Spanish village life and mountain scenery just a short drive away.
