La Devesa beach
Just a few minutes south of Valencia you’ll find a true natural paradise. La Playa de la Devesa is an unspoilt stretch of coastline set in a unique environment, between the Mediterranean Sea and the lake of L’Albufera. Natural dunes dotted with native vegetation extend for five kilometres in a tempting strip that invites pure relaxation… or a refreshing dip in a truly special setting. You’re in a natural park!
Just because it’s a natural beach doesn’t mean it doesn’t have all the essential facilities, including those for people with disabilities, with an adapted walkway in the Casal d’Esplai area making it easier for them to access the sea.
