Other beaches in the area include Les Marines Beach, an open beach over two and half kilometres in length; Albaranas Beach, a quiet but contemporary beach; Les Bovetes, a tranquil and well-preserved cove; Els Molins, a one and half kilometre beach patronized by windsurfers. Les Deveses Beach is highlighted by mountains and Spanish style chalets built along the beachfront.
The south of Denia is known as Les Rotes. It features sandy beaches that eventually give way to beautiful and secluded coves. The main beach is Marineta Cassiana considered to be a prime diving spot. The sheltered beaches of El Trampoli and Punta Negra are good spots for diving lessons.
Most of Denia’s beaches have restrooms, showers, sunshades and beds for hire. Bars, restaurants and “chiringuitos” (beach bars that sell alcoholic and soft drinks, ice cream and snacks) line the beachfront. There are also numerous beach-based sports activities on and off the water.
Most importantly, Denia beaches are consistent recipients of the Blue Flag award given to the best beaches in the world.
