El Xarco dog-friendly beach
Some of us like to go to the beach with our dog, and in Villajoyosa you can take your pet to El Xarco beach, one of the few dog-friendly beaches in the Valencia region.
The beach does have some rules to follow if you’re going with your pet. You have to respect the passage place on the shore of 6 meters; if the dog is classified as dangerous, it has to wear a muzzle; you must carry a veterinary passport with you; and it is mandatory to pick up any dog litter.
Varadero Beach
This beach is located next to the Estudiantes and Tio Roig beaches. As it’s a pebble beach, don’t forget appropriate footwear so you can enter the water safely, and don’t forget your snorkel either, as at the southern end of the beach you can find a great route. On this beach you’ll find the Chiringuito Nuevo Varadero, where you can enjoy lunch or dinner overlooking the sea.
El Torres Beach
This beach is very close to the campsite, only 5 minutes away! It’s surrounded by a large eucalyptus tree grove, access to it is very easy, and there’s a large parking area, but don’t forget to wear comfortable shoes as this is a stony beach.
Nearby you’ll find the Tower of San Josep or the Tower of Hercules, a Roman funerary tower.
