Punta del Riu

Playa, adaptada para el uso con mascotas, situada junto a la desembocadura del Río Seco.

Punta del Riu is one of those beaches in Alicante that deserves a spot on your list this summer. It stretches 400 metres in length and 8 metres wide, with fine sand and waters typical of the coast of Alicante. It's a more natural beach, without major facilities — perfect if you're looking for something quieter and more unspoiled. If you're bringing your dog, you're in luck — dogs are allowed at Punta del Riu, which is increasingly rare on the Spanish coast.
