Explore the Pink Lake of Torrevieja & Playa Varadero
Looking for a unique escape from Valencia? Head south to discover two must-see spots on the Costa Blanca.
🌸 Pink Lake of Torrevieja
Located near Torrevieja, this 1,400-hectare pink lake is part of Las Salinas de Torrevieja. Its pink color comes from salt-loving algae and bacteria. These support an entire pink ecosystem — even the flamingos turn pink from it!
Important: as it is a protected national park, swimming and taking salt from the lake are not allowed. The fines for doing so are extremely high, so it’s best to simply enjoy the beauty from the paths and viewpoints.
A surreal, beautiful destination perfect for nature lovers and photographers.
🏖 Playa Varadero (Santa Pola)
Just nearby, Playa Varadero is a lively Blue Flag beach ideal for young adults. It offers sunbeds, beach volleyball, lifeguards, and a vibrant atmosphere. In July, it hosts the Tabarca-Santa Pola swim race, attracting swimmers from around the world.
Make it a full-day trip: nature in the morning, beach vibes in the afternoon!
