Playa Maruja GarcĂa, often referred to simply as Playa Maruja, is a beautifully serene beach situated between the towns of Motril and Torrenueva in the province of Granada. Named after a local resident, Maruja GarcĂa, the beach serves as a tribute to the hardworking mothers and grandmothers of the municipality.
The beach is renowned for its tranquil ambiance, largely due to its slightly secluded location and the fact that it is not widely known. This relative obscurity contributes to a low number of visitors, allowing for a peaceful beach experience. Playa Maruja GarcĂa stretches approximately 300 meters in length and 15 meters in width and is characterized by its fine, dark sand and crystal clear water, providing a pristine and untouched environment for beachgoers.
Getting to the beach can be slightly challenging due to the absence of clear signage and the presence of dirt roads between orchards. To access the beach, visitors have to walk from the westernmost parking area in Torrenueva. Despite the lack of clear directions, the rewards for those who manage to find it are significant, with the untouched beauty of the beach offering a unique and enjoyable experience.
While the beach is popular among locals, it has been observed that there can be issues with loose dogs, which could potentially be a nuisance to some visitors. Nevertheless, Playa Maruja GarcĂa continues to be a favored destination for those who are familiar with it, with many expressing hopes that it will soon be recognized for its quality with a blue flag designation.
