Located on the Catalonian coast in northeastern Spain, the Costa Brava area delivers rugged beauty (the name means "rough coast"), with many serene beaches surrounded by high cliffs. Aside from the beaches, it is a great part of Spain for sightseeing, as it is filled with a long history and rich culture. Beaches like Es Pujols offer both bright, white sands and dreamy blue-green water. It is no deserted island — the beach is fronted by a pathway lined with cafés and restaurants, and beyond the beach there is a vibrant little town. No list of Spanish beaches is complete without a mention of those found on the Canary Islands. Playa del Ingles, on Gran Canaria, is nearly seven miles (11 kilometers) of wide, sandy beach, gradually transforming into beautiful dunes as its shown in the best beaches in Spain map.

Bogatell is within the city limits but less crazy than the city main Barceloneta beach. Bogatell, a man-made beach, was created for the 1992 Olympics, so it's well-designed and clean. There are lifeguards on duty and basic facilities (bathrooms and showers) every few hundred yards along the beach. It is a wide, flat beach with coarse, brown sand. Cala Mesquida is on the northeast coast and just starting to be discovered by international tourists. The small bay has a quarter-mile-long beach with fine sand as its mentioned in the best beaches in Spain map. There are chair and umbrella rentals but only one restaurant and one snack stand. The primary resort is Almunecar, which feels like a seaside town in the South of France. There is a long, curving beach fronted by a promenade and street lined with shops, restaurants, and hotels. There is also a row of mainly restaurants along the beach itself.
 
Laredo is Spain outdoor water sports capital, popular with surfers, windsurfers, kitesurfers, and jet skiers. The beach is about five kilometers long, curving along a picturesque bay as you can see in the best beaches in Spain map. The beach area itself is wide, with very fine, soft white sand. Asturias is a region in northern Spain, also on the Atlantic coast. Most beaches here are white, sandy, and wild, surrounded by rocky cliffs. Playa de Torimbia is a stunning, secluded beach, close to the port of Llanes, west of Bilbao. It is a raw, wild beach, with no shops or food, but it does have lifeguards on weekends during the summer season, and showers are available. Almeria is in southeast Spain on the Mediterranean Sea. The city is dominated by a Moorish castle looming on a hilltop. Close to Almeria, the resort town of Carboneras is known for its beautiful beaches, which are surrounded by a huge nature preserve.
