A prestigious Blue Flag award in 2004, This extensive bay, well-protected from the ocean, boasts an 800 metre stretch of golden sand and crystal-clear waters. Because the beach is artificially constructed you can go very far away in the water. This is of course ideal for a family with small and big children. Through the bay form is on the beach little wave action. There is great snorkeling to be found along the cove wall.
The position of Playa de Amadores between immense rocks also ensures that it is protected from the wind. The artificial construction with the white sand in combination with crystal clear water creates a unique blue color. And although this beach is busy, the vibe is quiet, families spend time here as the sand provides perfect conditions for small children to run around and play safely.
