Carabassi Playa is a
beautiful, open and unspoiled beach with fine sand
and calming sea ideal for all the family. It's situated
next to the Carabassí Sierra, an ecological
protection area formed by the dunes and pine trees
creating an area of ecological interest.
The Clot de Galvany
(nature reserve) is close by where locals and visitors
to Gran Alacant can enjoy the local scenery and wildlife.
Carabassi Playa is also
popular with naturists; as there are many sand dunes
to be found. |
