Gandía beach is one of the favourite beaches for Spaniards, but do you know why? What does Gandía beach have that other beaches don’t? What services does it offer? Gandía has more than 7 km of beach divided into several parts. The main beach is the north beach (Platja nord), where most of the beach flats and hotels are located. The beach is more than 3 kilometres long with fine, clean sand. The location could not be better. During the summer months sun and good weather are almost guaranteed.
Here 👇, you will find information about all the beaches in Gandía. There is a naturalistic beach, an artificial beach, a tourist beach and much more. The beach is very popular with families and groups of friends especially during the summer (both residents and tourists).



👉 Nord Beach
The north beach of Gandía is one of the best known and most visited beaches in Gandía, a long, beautiful beach of fine sand, with a long promenade, which has all the services imaginable. At its southern end is located the Nautical Club and fishing port of the city; there is no lack of maritime transport activity either.
Characteristics of Gandía Nord beach
As we said before, the fine white sandy beach is very well maintained. It is a destination with recognised quality and environmental seals. It is worth noting that there are not many beaches that meet all these standards and receive so many awards and quality certificates that make it the main beach of La Safor. It is, on the other hand, the wide range of services that make this a very attractive beach.

Underneath the promenade you will find an underground car park open during the high season.
