Planning your visit to Los Genoveses Beach

Access is rated easy, so most visitors can reach the beach without a long walk or special equipment.
The usual season runs May–October. Visiting near the start or end of that window usually means fewer people, but the sea is cooler and some facilities may not be open yet or may have closed for the year.
