Why go
Postiguet lets a beach break fit into an old-town or waterfront day without extra transport. The sand sits between the historic centre and Mount Benacantil, so the castle remains visible from the shore. Sports and play areas make it practical for a short, active stop as well as a longer swim.
What to look for
- Santa Bárbara Castle rises directly behind the beach on Mount Benacantil.
- The 900-metre shoreline sits beside the old town and marina rather than outside the city.
- Sports and play areas reinforce its role as an urban recreation beach.
Useful to know
- Use Postiguet for a swim or seaside pause between central sights rather than expecting a remote beach day.
- Combine it with the port and Explanada for a level waterfront route.
- Bring sun protection; the open sand has far less shade than the nearby promenade.
