Cullera Beaches

The foothills of the Sierra de Las Zorras (or Rabosses), upon which the lighthouse is perched, and the estuary of the river Júcar divide the Cullera coastline into three different sections.

To the north of the lighthouse lies a peaceful beach almost 2 km long where one can swim virtually alone. In addition, three different inlets - Faro, Olivos and Cap Blanc - are a paradise for windsurf enthusiasts.

The enormous Bahía de los Naranjos bay stretches towards the south, sheltering the popular beaches of Racó, Santa Marta and San Antonio. Besides having full facilities, the beaches at Cullera also have summer activities such as windsurf or paddleboat rental to get out to the Peña del Moro, an ideal spot for diving.

The beaches beyond the river estuary are calmer and more unspoilt, with the advantage of many restaurants serving rice and fish specialities next to the Estuary and a picturesque fresh water lake.
