Burriana Beach It is the most tourist beach in Nerja. The beach that receives the most visitors (par excellence). Burriana beach is a large beach with coarse sand, located at the eastern end of Nerja.
The Burriana Beach in Nerja, is usually the beach that regularly receives the “Q of Tourist Quality in Beaches”. Beach with quality Q Due to its services for tourism, the wide range of restaurants, bars, hotels, apartments and shops for tourists. And for the cleanliness and quality of its waters.
The burriana beach area is not central. It is a new and modernized area. In summer it is when more influx of people has.
The access to the beach is well through a long and steep slope that descends from Pescia Avenue or from a steep winding hill from the Parador de Nerja. Either way, the route is steep and a car or taxi is a good option. Going down the hill is no problem, it’s the return trip, especially at the end of the day.
The beach is about 800 meters long and, on average, about 40 meters wide. The sea has a moderate swell and gets quite deep relatively quickly.
On the beach there are pedal boats for rent, hammock areas for rent, beach showers, playgrounds for children and beach volleyball nets.
