Located in the tourist complex of Gran Alacant, from which the Santa Pola lighthouse can be seen, it borders the Arenales del Sol Beach, Elche Town and to the south with Santa Pola Beach. It is a well-deserved blue flag beach, despite being close to major urban centers such as Alicante, Elche or Santa Pola.

From its coasts we can see the island of Tabarca, with its transparent waters. The beach of El Carabassi has more than 3 kilometers of sand the city council have enabled access and protected the sand dunes with wooden walkways.

There is an area for nudists; upon entering the beach turn right, this takes you to the naturist area. There is another area in which to snorkel; at the end where the beach makes a curve. It is a place where, due to its characteristics, you can practice many water sports, such as surfing.

It is also an excellent area for relaxation and ideal for naturist families or those who wish to educate their children in the normality of nudity; head towards the south of the shores. 

There is a pinewood area that is perfect for siesta in the shade. Finally, it should be noted that the swell of this area is moderate and that it is an area considered to be ecologically protected.
