Stayed in an apartment directly opposite the beach and we visited a number of times and found the beach to always be clean and lovely to swim in the clear waters. The general area has lots of facilities, including toilets, cafes and lovely restaurants, parking may be an issue and it always seemed busy with parked cars, especially during the day. Beach it’s self is more shingle and a pair of swim shoes is recommended, there are lots of beds and sun shades to rent, the beach has the sun from sunset to sundown when we were there.

We are lucky enough to travel extensively, but this would be one of our favourite places anywhere. Compact and beautiful. It is a lovely place to spend long lazy days in the sunshine. Sunday is different when all the locals come down and it is absolutely packed. Parking can be a nightmare on that day, but otherwise you can usually find a spot somewhere along the front door up one of the side streets. The sea is calm, the beach lovely and it is lined with smashing beachside restaurants and bars. There are lots of nice shops as well and you can rent sunbeds and loungers for about €6 a day each.

We have been coming to this area for donkeys years and never get tired of this amazing beach. It is just about perfect and has something for everyone whether solo travellers, couples or families. Parking can be a bit tricky at times but there is a newish multistorey car park on the edge of town should you not be able to get one of the free slots on the street. Kinect by a wonderful promenade the beach has entertainment for those wanting to swim, do yoga, jog, play volleyball or just lie on one of the Sun lounges available forhire. On the other side of the single Road are a multitude of bars, restaurants and shops where you can get anything you need for your day at the beach.

the best beach in nerja, i love it! so much to do and see, my family have owned property in the area for 40+ years and this is always where i like to spend my time most, takes about 15-20 mins to walk down form our place and its absolutely blissful, can get very crowded in high season but we never go then so its always perfect for us! the restaurants along the front are fantastic as well as all the small shops and ice cream parlours beds cost around £4-6 for the day which is fine for us we dont mind paying as and when we want them. if you know you are going days in a row you can also reserve specific sunbeds

Burriana Beach can be a challenge for anyone who has problems walking - not when you are down on the promenade but walking down the hill(and back up again) can take a real effort. There is limited parking near the sea front but a multi story a little further behind the main area. Once on the promenade the beach area is flat and backed by a number of bars restaurants and shops (with parking if you are lucky to get a space) so it makes for a pleasant walk. The beach itself is made up of sand and small gravel/pebbles and is well sheltered so waves are not too high in normal conditions. There are areas where you can hire sunbeds and umbrellas or bring some beach chairs and a cheap beach umbrella for a picnic. On an evening around about 6 to 7pm I noticed more parking spaces on the street behind the promenade if you intend to eat there.

Great views & sunbeds in the shade. It is a sand/stone beach so beach shoes advised. Lots of great places to eat along beach, noodle bar and Jesus fish restaurant have great menu too, fish pieces & chips in a cone.
