Playa Fluvial de Bugarra
A river beach on the Turia with picnic grounds and step-free access, the busiest swimming spot in the village in summer.
The Playa Fluvial de Bugarra is a bathing area on the Turia river as it passes Bugarra, in the Los Serranos district. It works as an inland beach, with picnic grounds and a ramped entrance, and it is the most highly rated swimming spot in the village, with over a thousand reviews and a high average score.
Swimming
The Turia arrives here regulated from upstream, so the level changes with the season. The entrance offers wheelchair access and adapted parking, which is unusual among river beaches in the area. On July and August weekends it fills up, so arrive early to get a picnic table.
Tips for your visit
The site is free to use and pairs well with a picnic lunch and a stroll through the village. Bring river shoes if you plan to walk on the riverbed stones, and keep children out of the midday heat. It is under an hour by car from Valencia, and you can combine it on the same day with the Charco Azul on the Turia.
