Playa Lisa is a beach situated in the coastal town of Santa Pola, in Alicante, Spain. It forms part of the Costa Blanca, a region renowned for its natural beauty and sports activities. The beach is characterized by its shallow waters, making it safe for both children and adults. Its orientation towards the prevailing winds makes it a popular spot for windsurfing and other sailing sports. Notably, Playa Lisa hosts the Wind Surf Área Club, a long-standing institution in the area.
The beach's natural characteristics include its flat, firm grey sand and a stretch of 669.59 meters in length and 30 meters in width. It is also bordered by a drainage canal, a result of the high water table in the area. Historically, the bay visible from the beach, known as "Sinus Illicitanus," was a large lagoon drained in the 18th century.
Despite the presence of seaweed in the sea, the shallow waters of Playa Lisa are ideal for paddling, making it a family-friendly location. However, visitors are advised to be cautious of seagulls when bringing food.
Playa Lisa offers a variety of amenities for visitors. The seafront is lined with a selection of bars, shops, and restaurants, catering to a range of tastes and preferences. However, the quality of the sand may not be conducive for building sandcastles.
The beach is conveniently located near a marina, making it easily accessible. However, during peak times, the beach can become crowded, and space may be limited. Despite this, a clean and safe environment is maintained for visitors. Parking information and specific directions to the beach are not provided.
