Anfi Del Mar proudly calls itself the "Caribbean beach"; the scenery is simply breathtaking. The calm waves and gentle entry into the water make the beach an ideal spot for families as well as for adults seeking relaxation.

Thus, the beach is not only a place to unwind but also a hub for fun and sports. To sweeten your little bathing break, visitors can relax in the tropical gardens or enjoy exquisite meals in one of the local restaurants. However, please note that the use of restrooms in the restaurants is limited to their customers; for an urgent visit, it may be necessary to head to the nearby shopping center.
Travel Information
Getting to Anfi Del Mar is straightforward, one of the advantages of this popular destination.

Recommendations
If you are planning your stay at Anfi Del Mar, we recommend bringing your own snacks and drinks, as the dining options nearby are limited. It is also worth exploring the surrounding gardens and the quieter area of the beach, especially in the early evening hours when it becomes more tranquil and the dramatic sunsets provide a perfectly romantic backdrop.

The costs for sunbeds are relatively reasonable; smaller sunbeds can be rented for about 12 euros per day, while larger, more comfortable sunbeds can cost up to 40 euros. The availability of sunbeds can fluctuate, especially during peak season, so plan wisely! It should be noted that the staff at the beach promenade starts packing up around 5 PM, which may not suit everyone who wants to enjoy the afternoon hours.
