About Playetes Beach
Playetes Beach is Moraira's shallow shore reef at Les Platgetes, where a short beach entry leads into a sandy-and-rocky cove with an easy, training-friendly profile. It works best on settled days for beginner scuba, snorkel sessions, and night dives, with most of the life tucked along the rocky edges. Beach traffic and summer use can make the shoreline busier, so plan for an early or late session.
