Official sources list an accessible stretch, walkways and a dedicated bathing point. Check seasonal hours and available assistance with the council before visiting.
We do not publish fixed hours because they can vary with the season and beach-service arrangements.

Data transparency
Sources and method
Core facts come from the official El Campello council pages and the Comunitat Valenciana tourism portal. We separate permanent beach features from seasonal services and explain discrepancies between documents.
Why measurements differ: the tourism profile gives about 1 850 × 30 m, while the municipal safety plan defines an operating sector of 1 400 m with an average width of 40 m. They use different boundaries and methods, so both figures can be correct in context.
