The beaches, one by one
Thirty-seven beaches and coves, each with its own name, and no two are for the same thing: town beaches, pebble coves where there is usually nobody, and stretches you can only reach on foot. They are all here, with what you need to pick today’s one.
Beaches where dogs are allowed
Only three of the thirty-seven are listed as pet-friendly beaches by Turismo Región de Murcia. Not on the rest.

Where this data comes from
From the Instituto de Turismo de la Región de Murcia — beach records and map —, from Turismo Azul Región de Murcia and, for some smaller measurements with no summary record, from checked local sources. Where the official record explicitly states orientation and shelter, that is what is reproduced; elsewhere the main exposure has been inferred from the geometry of the coast.
The ≈ symbol marks an estimated measurement: that local name has no official record of its own.
