"Mar Bella translates as ‘beautiful sea’, and whether it’s through the power of suggestion–or geography–the sea here does appear to glimmer towards the turquoise. Pantone shades aside, Mar Bella is most notable for having a large clothing-optional section. You can’t spot it from the promenade (it’s hidden behind artfully placed rocks), so, as you stroll onto the sand, you may be surprised to discover just how well attended it is—except in terms of garments. There is no pressure to bare or wear, though–it’s entirely up to you; the vibe is liberal, as relaxed as a siesta, LGBTQIA-friendly, and no one bats an eyelid about what anyone else is doing, wearing, or where they are applying their SPF. However, if you want to be sure there are no anatomical surprises popping up in the background of your vacation snaps, wander along to Nova Mar —the next stretch along—where bits remain white under wraps." - Gemma Askham
