- kevin McD154 contributionsGreat beachNice clean beach, the sea was warm enough to spend alot of time in it. Plenty of watersports to keep you busy. The seaweed washed up makes it not so nice to walk on. Plenty of bars and restaurants near.Visited July 2024Traveled as a coupleWritten July 3, 2024
- AUDS MCHoughton-le-Spring, United Kingdom650 contributionsA surprisingly stunning beachNot a regular Benidorm visitor, this beach was an unexpected bonus. It’s clearly very well looked after, with the prettiest sand and clear blue sea. There were plenty of beds on offer and endless activities. It was very busy with lots going on, so not a relaxing beach visit but beautiful nonetheless 🏖️Visited June 2024Traveled with friendsWritten July 5, 2024
- Marcela105Cambridge, United Kingdom176 contributionsGood beach for small childrenVery busy and clean beach but it was nice as the access to water was great - shallow water was great for small kids. There has been facilities to clean off the sand (knee high “showers”). Unfortunately, there has been no toilet nearby. According to a map there was one somewhere in the middle, but this beach was so long, so walking 15-20 to toilet was not an option for us as our hotel was a same distance.Visited June 2024Traveled with familyWritten August 19, 2024
- Leane DRedditch, United Kingdom146 contributionsLovely warm waterA nice beach. Sea was lovely and warm. The one end was great for kids to body board and play in the see. The other end was very rocky so preferred the other side. We hired a pedalo which was fun (€30 for an hour). Lots of showers/food showers to wash yourself off before getting off the beach. Did not see any toilets! We are in a restaurant and used a cafe for drink so used the facilities there but really could do with some toilets.Visited August 2024Traveled with familyWritten August 28, 2024
- Christoff MLichfield, United Kingdom1,208 contributionsFab beach well maintained!Fab beach always maintained well and a busy one as you can imagine! Sunbeds are 6 euros that's far cheaper than some Spanish resorts! Easy access, good wide pedestrian area to walk along form old to new town - plenty drinking/eating places along the way! Lifeguards at various points along the long stretch.Visited September 2024Traveled with friendsWritten September 18, 2024

We stayed for 3 weeks and never tried of the sights and sounds of this beautiful sandy beach. They clean it with a tractor every day. The promenade is always clean too. During the day it can be busy with people strolling along, taking their time, especially at weekends. At night it is much quieter when most of the bars and restaurants close, but still nice to walk along and see everything illuminated. It takes about 30 minutes to walk from one end to the other. The feet washed stations need clearing same as currently they are a waste of time.

Gorgeous clean sandy beach. Our first visit to Benidorm, we hired sunbeds at €6 each, the day we visited the beach on 23rd February it was a bit overcast with some sunny intervals. Maybe we should have gone the day before as we had glorious sunshine.
Only one issue was that there were no toilet facilities, not quite sure why, unless they are provided as the season gets busier?

We visited Benidorm market for a few hours and bought lots of bargains and souvenirs, before heading to Levante Beach. At the beach we hired sunbeds and an umbrella. The weather was gorgeous and the beach was immaculate with soft sand and no litter.
Having spent a few hours on the beach, we headed to Auntie Belles (Av. de Almería, 23, 03503) for a 3 course Sunday dinner with a glass of wine or beer for €9.50. The menu was great with a starter of soup or pate, a main of beef or chicken with all the trimmings including stuffing and a dessert of apple pie, ice cream or chocolate fudge cake. The food was tasty and value for money. We would definitely recommend a visit. After eating we returned to the beach for some sunbathing. Opposite the beach there was a lovely strip of bars and restaurants with a great atmosphere and some lively bars including Daytona and Heart Break

We fully expected this beach to be overrun as we went during school holiday time, but we visited both ends and the middle and always had plenty of space. Periodically there are things for kids to do like a climbing frame, a playground, and a volleyball net, and the sand is lovely and powdery. We spent a lot of time at the North end, near the rocks, so the kids got to see plenty of fish and even an octopus one day! We went in February and even though the sea was still chilly, we all paddles and us grown ups even had a swim. Great beach for families.

A beautiful beach, I was her in February and managed a few hours on it, the sea was freezing so avoided the swim, the sand/sea wasn't full of pebbles, rocks and debris like some Spanish beaches further north are.
No sunbeds but it is February, so not sure what it would be like in the height of summer I am guessing it is rammed with little space on there.
The pedestrian walkway behind the beach has the potato men scamming people with their find the lady trick so be warned do not get sucked in by the big crowds watching, you will lose 50 euros in an instant, you have no chance of winning.
The bars behind the beach are plentiful and seemed busy even this time of year

Stroller along this beach and beachfront several time’s whilst in Benidorm. Plenty of choice of places to eat and drink or just bask in the sunshine and the views .
The sand is lovely and soft although the sea is a bit cold in January .
Lots of people on their disabled buggies and motorised scooters so be careful as they don’t slow down .
Easy place to stroll along .

The Levante beach is about 2 miles long with a wide, clean promenade running along its length. The beach is cleaned daily and has a lifeguard on duty.
Watch out for the many disability buggies - some tandems, which seem to dominate the promenade (and dogs). Lots of cafes, restaurants along the way - some blaring out music most of the time. Plenty of summer seats but probably more needed, especially ones with backs.

Plenty of visitors now on playa levante, pegged out squares have been removed which means the beach can be manicured like in the past.
People leave space between themselves so seems to be working ok, beach looks great again and seafront bars have more customers , though those open are far from bursting.
Very nice along there currently.

Hola, a la altura de que hotel más o menos acaban las rocas de la playa de levante? Un saludo y gracias

Me han comentado que hacia la mitad de la playa ya no hay … sabríais hacia qué altura es donde se acaban?

With the new booking system in place, does this only apply if you want a "space" on
the beach? Are there still sunbeds available for hire and do you have to book these
in advance as well or do you just turn up?

Sorry - don't know the answer to this one

Had many great holidays here. Just wondered if the "Touts" that go up and down Levante beach selling drinks have been stopped yet. They were quite annoying sometimes.

How much are the water sports does anybody know?
Written April 21, 2020
Go onto the local website & you should be able to find out.
At the moment though there are no watersports as the beaches cannot be used due to the strict lockdown measures in Spain.
