According to data from the Department of Beaches in Benidorm, more than 18,500 people with limited movement enjoyed Benidorm’s accessible beaches last year.
After a month-long break, this service started up again last Saturday. During that time, the city council cleaned the sandbanks very thoroughly while not many people were on the beaches.
In Benidorm, there are three beach access places. One is in Levante, near Murcia Street, and the other two are in Poniente, in the La Cala area, across from Mont Benidorm Avenue and next to Elche Park.
Over the course of 2024, a total of 18,563 people used these three areas. Of those, 9,811 people went to the Elche Park point, followed by 6,531 at Levante and 2,221 at La Cala.
Mónica Gómez, the Councillor for Beaches, said that “during the high season months, an average of more than 2,500 people a month passed through the accessible beach points.” In June and July, the highest number of users was 2,840, and in August, it was 2,628.
Gómez said that during the low season, “the demand for this service is constant and sustained.” He also said that “more than 500 users were used” in January and February, when the service is only available 15 days a month, while “1,035 and 994 users were used” in November and December.
