There are many beaches in Huelva so choose the most beautiful it can be a bit tricky. Surely there are ideas for all tastes and some that are more popular than others but we will try to give an idea of the beaches that should not be missed if we are going to take a trip through Huelva.
Islantilla Beach
This beach is very popular, as it is located between the towns of Isla Cristina and Lepe. It is more than a kilometer long and has many spaces. It is common to see families on this beach since it is one of those that has all kinds of services available, which makes things easier if you go with children. But it also has quieter areas. On this beach there is also a beautiful pine forest if we get tired of sunbathing and some dunes that can be a good place to rest. When the tide goes out, there is a large stretch of beach where you can stroll through which is highly recommended since that way we can see nearby places such as Playa del Hoyo. This is one of the most popular beaches that also has the blue flag every year for the quality of water and services.

This is another of the beaches that they will surely recommend if you go to Huelva. The El Portil beach has been urbanized although it is now in a nature reserve area. This beach is very beautiful, with more than three kilometers long, so we will not have the feeling of being surrounded by people if we look for more secluded corners of urbanized areas. It is another blue flag beach that offers various types of services. Also from this area you can see the Flecha del Rompido.
Matalascañas Beach
This beach is really famous because it is more than five kilometers long and it constitutes the access on foot to reach the Doñana National Park, its most important natural reserve. It offers crystal clear waters and services, but it is also quite crowded in summer because it is one of the most popular and close to Seville, which makes it not the best choice if we are looking for privacy. But of course it is a beach that must be visited because we can also access the nature reserve. In this area we can also see the Torre de la Higuera, a XNUMXth century construction that collapsed when the Lisbon earthquake happened. This is also a beach that fans of water sports like windsurfing come to.
El Rompido Beach
This is another of the beaches that you are going to love, with its beautiful golden sand and located in the Marismas del Río Piedras Natural Park. You can go by ferry to the spit of sand that can be seen from the beach, known as the Flecha del Rompido. It is a much quieter beach that has no services but where you can enjoy nature more. Nearby is the fishing village of Cartaya, a picturesque place with white houses.
Torre del Loro Beach
This beach is another of those that we allow you to enjoy places without so many urbanizations, alone with nature. This beach has good access and parking, although you have to walk from this place to the beach, so it is not usually recommended for families or people with reduced mobility. It is a large beach of four kilometers with the typical golden sand of the area where we will also find an old watchtower from the XNUMXth century that is what gives the beach its name. This tower belongs to Palos de la Frontera, Moguer, Almonte and Lucena del Puerto.
Punta Umbría Beach
This will be another busy beach during the summer as it is an urban beach located in Punta Umbría. It is located next to Marismas de Odiel natural area so it has great value. It is a beach that offers all services and that is why it is usually the favorite of those who stay in this area, also counting on the blue flag for everything it offers to visitors. However, there are other more intimate beaches nearby such as La Canaleta. In the nearby beach of Los Enebrales you can also practice nudism.
