Playa de Galua is a well-liked beach positioned in La Manga del Mar Menor, a part of the city of Cartagena. This urban beach is graced with the clear waters of the Mediterranean Sea and is known for its golden fine sand. The sand is not only a beautiful sight but also home to a variety of seascapes, making it a treasure trove for collectors.
The beach, despite its compact size, witnesses a high influx of visitors, particularly during the summer months. However, even with the crowd, the beach retains a tranquil and pleasing environment. Playa de Galua is also popular among surfers, thanks to its high waves.
The beach is favorably located next to Plaza Bohemia, which enhances the accessibility to numerous local amenities. Visitors have access to various facilities such as toilets, and lifeguards are stationed for the safety of beachgoers. The beach is also surrounded by a multitude of accommodation options, which contributes to its easy accessibility. However, one prominent hotel situated on the rocks somewhat detracts from the beach's natural beauty.
Playa de Galua's popularity and quality of services led to it being awarded the "Q" for Touristic Quality in 2014. The beach is easily reachable, with the Galúa hotel on Levante beach providing a convenient access point. Nevertheless, visitors are advised to be aware of the parking situation, as the influx of visitors could potentially pose a challenge.
