What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Playa de Les Amplàries is a vast and wide beach in Oropesa del Mar, praised for its warm waters and family-friendly sandy southern section. Visitors appreciate the good infrastructure, including restrooms and showers, and the unique charm of peacocks roaming nearby. However, the northern part can be stony and sloped, posing accessibility challenges for some.
"Vast and quite wide beach in Oropesa de Mar. The North part is quite stony and the slopes can make it challenging to reach the shore if you have reduced mobility. The South border is more sandy and has less hills but it is not completely flat. Perfect for a family day."
