Mascarat Beach, located at C. Rda. del Atardecer, 3, 03590, Alicante, Spain, is a picturesque cove known for its clear, turquoise waters and rocky landscape. The beach is not extensive, but its natural charm is enhanced by the surrounding mountains that almost touch the shoreline. This rocky beach is particularly appealing for snorkeling and diving, as the underwater environment is rich with marine life, including posidonia meadows that attract various fish species. Visitors often recommend bringing water shoes for comfort on the stony shore, as the beach is primarily composed of larger pebbles.

The atmosphere at Mascarat Beach tends to be tranquil, making it an ideal spot for those looking to unwind. While the beach does attract a fair number of visitors, it maintains a laid-back vibe, with a designated naturist area at one end. Facilities include a beach bar where refreshments can be enjoyed in the shade, as well as public restrooms. During the summer months, lifeguards are present, and beachgoers have the option to rent sun loungers and umbrellas. Parking is available in a spacious area behind the beach, which is a notable convenience given the difficulty of finding parking at other nearby coves.

For those interested in exploring beyond the beach, the nearby Campomanes port offers opportunities for water sports and dining at various restaurants and cafes. Additionally, a short trek around the point of Mascarat leads to a more secluded cove, often less crowded and equally stunning, though access can be a bit challenging. The combination of the beach's natural beauty and the surrounding amenities makes Mascarat Beach a noteworthy destination for relaxation and aquatic activities.
