Forget the crowded beaches of Costa del Sol! Spain has some incredible hidden beaches that most tourists never find. Here are my top picks: Playa de las Catedrales in Galicia, Cala Macarelleta in Menorca, and Playa de Gulpiyuri in Asturias (yes, it is an inland beach!). Share your own hidden gems!

Playa de las Catedrales is stunning! You need to book a free permit in advance during summer though. I would also add Playa de Rodas on the Cies Islands - voted the best beach in the world by The Guardian.

Cala Macarelleta is paradise! Crystal clear turquoise water. The hike to get there makes it less crowded too. Pro tip: bring your own food and water, there are no facilities.
