Playa de la Victoria
A roughly 3 km golden-sand beach on the new-town side, holding Blue Flag status and backed by a wide seafront promenade. It is the city's best beach for swimming.
Playa de la Victoria lies in the new town south of the Old Town, with fine sand and a broad beach. It has held the European Blue Flag for many years. In summer there are lifeguards, showers and chiringuitos (beach bars). The seafront boulevard is good for running, cycling and watching the sunset, with a row of seafood restaurants and bars behind it. Take bus line 1 or 7 from the Old Town, about 15 minutes. At the southern end, you can continue to Cortadura Beach, which is more open and quiet.
