One of the little headaches of a beach day in Benidorm is where to leave the car, especially in summer. If you're spending the day paddling, here's a practical guide so parking doesn't eat into your sea time. And remember: since we deliver the gear to the point we agree on, all you have to worry about is parking yourself.
Free park-and-ride zones
Benidorm has thousands of free parking spaces in park-and-ride areas near the two big beaches (Levante and Poniente). They're the most economical option: leave the car and a few minutes' walk later you're on the sand. There are several thousand spaces between the two areas, though in the middle of August it's worth arriving early to find a spot.
Paid car parks
If you prefer convenience and arriving later, there are several underground paid car parks around the centre and along the promenades. They cost more, but they guarantee a space and shade for the car during the hottest hours.
Practical tips
- Arrive early: in high season, free zones fill up from mid-morning.
- Cala de Finestrat and Villajoyosa usually have easier parking than central Benidorm. If you're after peace and quiet, start your route there.
- Don't leave valuables on view in the car.
- Note or photograph where you parked: Benidorm's promenades are long and everything looks the same on the way back.
The best part: we come to you
The big advantage of our system is that you don't have to carry the kayak or find a specific rental spot. You park wherever suits you within the agreed zone, and we arrive with the gear, paddles, life jackets and pump at that point. Less logistics, more sea.
