The worst beaches in Spain

Algeciras Bay
As you know, in Hard Hobbit To Break We always try to tell you about places worth knowing. However, sometimes it is also good to know which corners of the planet we should not visit. For this reason, the list of the worst beaches in Spain has seemed super practical, a ranking that has been prepared by Greenpeace.

As you can see for yourself below, these are 9 beaches that have been punished by massive urbanization, water pollution, an unsustainable model, the waste of public money, the presence of noise or the destruction of corals and dunes. Do you want to discover which are the worst sandbanks in Spain according to the ecologist association? Well, be very attentive to what we tell you next!

Algarrobico Beach, Almería

First, Greenpeace He talks about the Algarrobico beach, which is located in Carboneras, a town in Almería. Although it could be a place of immense beauty, the 21-storey building that acts as a backdrop spoils the entire environment. The funny thing is that the first 14 floors of this hotel have been declared illegal by the judiciary and still remain there.


Carob

Os Praceres beach, Pontevedra

The second beach on the list is Os Praceres, a section of the Pontevedra estuary where the ENCE litter bin was built. According to Greenpeace, this industrial complex causes serious problems of Health to the inhabitants of the area.

Ibiza

The third place on the list is not occupied by a beach, but by an entire island, although the association emphasizes the south and southeast sections, since a tourism model has been applied here untenable, turning the beaches into shopping centers.


Alicante

In fourth place we find a city, Alicante, although Greenpeace refers to the macro-beach bars that, thanks to the new Coastal Law, will go from 20 to 70 square meters, so the tranquility, the little noise and the few hammocks will cease to exist in many sections of the Alicante coast.

Alicante

Tinto river marshes, Huelva

From Alicante we moved to Huelva, specifically to the Tinto River marshes, a section that was selected by NASA for its resemblance to Mars. However, in the marshes, instead of ducks and flamingos, there are 120 million tons of toxic waste, probably caused by the Fertiberia industry.


Punta del Cascajo, La Palma

Another corner of the Spanish coastline that Greenpeace has wanted to include in this list is Punta del Cascajo, a ghost pier that should have been located in Tazacorte, a quiet fishing village. Although at first it was going to be used for commercial merchandise, the truth is that here only ships from playtime. Incidentally, the project has cost 90 million euros.

Punta de Langosteira, A Coruña

Langosteira Point
In A Coruña we find Punta de Langosteira, a port that has cost 750 million euros and is located in what was previously a beautiful area of cliffs that it was going to be destined for a refuge port after the Prestige tragedy and that, finally, it will end up as a Repsol port.

Muskiz beach, Biscay

Arriving at the end of the list, we find Muskiz Beach, a sandy area in Vizcaya that was previously a section full of marshes. The most remarkable thing about this place is that the Petronor refinery emits particles of coke, a highly toxic oil derivative.

Algeciras Bay, Cádiz

Finally, Greenpeace includes the bay of Algeciras, where there is little left of the refuge natural that was years ago. What we find today is an industrial pole.
