Punta Almadrava
Spain · Communauté Valencienne
Punta Almadrava is a spot located north of Dénia, in the Valencian Community. This semi-urban beach stretches for nearly 3 kilometers, with a mix of fine sand and pebbles, divided into two coves by the punta itself.
The waters are clear and calm, ideal for families seeking tranquility. It is a popular spot for water sports enthusiasts, especially kitesurfing, thanks to the frequent evening Lebeche wind during the summer.
The beach flies the blue flag for the quality of its water and services, and its name evokes the traditional fishing technique of almadraba for bluefin tuna.

The Punta Almadrava spot offers a spacious navigation area along its 2.9 km beach, with easy access to the water on fine sand mixed with pebbles. The main wind, the Lebeche (southwest), blows in a side-on direction relative to the north-south oriented beach, ideal for dynamic sessions especially in the late afternoon during summer.
The launch area is directly from the beach, about 20 meters wide, with enough space to maneuver without disturbing swimmers. In navigation, you find flat to choppy water near the shore, then small to medium waves breaking at about 60 meters from the shore, perfect for kickers and jumps.
Be cautious of the division by the rocky punta that separates the two coves: stay in the central area to avoid submerged rocks. Tides have little impact here, but check local conditions through kite schools in Dénia for days of strong thermal wind.
