Easily find the beach you are interested in and discover its characteristics and available services, weather forecast, drone videos, photos, and other users' ratings.
The coast of Spain, Portugal and Italy together have nearly 17600 kilometres with over 8000 beaches, some of which are among the best beaches in the world. And the best way to plan your next beach trip is having all the information at hand.
With iPlaya you'll have a thorough guide to all Spanish, Portuguese and Italian beaches, including all their features and services available in them, accurate hourly weather forecast, exclusive drone footage, and users' reviews and photos to help you make your choice.
If you've already used iPlaya before, you'll notice we’re working hard to offer more and better contents.
We want to help you discover the perfect beach for you, so we include curated lists of beaches with photos, drone footage, and enhanced descriptions. And you can still search by name, navigate the lists of provinces and towns, and see the list of nearby beaches.
And of course your list of favorites is there for quick one-tap access.
The home page is the starting point to discover the perfect beach for you. It’s divided into four sections:
- FEATURED is a dynamic section, which will grow periodically. In it you will find different types of content: lists of beaches grouped by some common criteria, reviews of specific beaches, stories about a coast area, etc.
- LISTS groups different ways of searching for beaches: by province or region, by proximity, beaches with drone videos, etc.
- MY BEACHES is your list, made up of the beaches that you mark as favorites.
- FIND allows you to search for beaches by name or by setting filters by characteristics or weather conditions.
Once you choose a beach, you’ll see a Summary with general info and links to the different sections:
- FORECAST, with hourly reports for temperature, sky conditions, water temperature, swell (wave height, period and direction), and wind (speed, direction, gusts). And daily reports for tides and astronomy data (sunrise, sunset, moonrise and moonset).
- List of TIDES for the next days.
- FEATURES includes a map showing the location of the beach and the distance from your current location (with the possibility of calculating the route to the beach by car or on foot, or launching the Maps app to get navigation). This section also includes a brief description of the beach, a list of general features (length, width, type of sand, etc.), a list of the main services available at the beach (showers, toilets, sports areas, etc.), info about accessing the beach and safety info. Moreover, it includes a new image gallery with information posters found at the beach. You can contribute your own photos to this gallery.
- RATINGS, which shows ratings, reviews and photos of the beach shared by users of the app. This is the section you can help grow by rating the beaches you know, writing reviews or uploading photos to share them with other users. (In order to send your ratings you must first login to your iPlaya account. Registering is super quick and easy!).
- IMAGE GALLERY.
From the Summary, you’ll be able to add the beach to your list of favorite beaches, warn us if you’ve spotted jellyfish over the last few hours, and share a photo or comment about the beach.
Don't forget to 'starfish' your favorite beaches. The list will be available on your Apple Watch app so you'll get a summarized forecast on your wrist!

Version 7.2.0
Hello, beach lovers! In version 7.2.0, we’ve added a whole lot of changes. The most important one is the new Advanced Forecast section. This feature is for Premium users, who can now see every last detail of the hourly forecast. This feature will be ideal for those who need to know all the data about the waves, but it also has extra data that all of you will be interested in. The section contains the following hourly data in a table: sky conditions icon, temperature, cloud cover, humidity, precipitation, air pressure, visibility, UV index, direction, speed and gusts of wind, direction, height and period of the waves, direction, height and period of swell, direction, height and period of wind waves, water temperature, and tide status.
Additionally, we have fixed a problem with the widgets where some data was not displaying correctly, another issue that occurred when trying to mark a beach in Italy as a favourite, and we have made small tweaks here and there to improve the app experience.
We hope you like all the new features and that you are already enjoying all those from the previous versions. What do you think of the topographic maps? Have you had a chance to use them for any hikes along the coast? If so, tell us about it!
We are fully into spring, so everyone, enjoy the beach with the warm weather!

iPlaya. Beach weather forecast version 7.1.0
Updated At: 2024-03-17
Changes: Mar 17, 2024
Version 7.1.0
Hello everyone! In version 7.1.0, we've made a lot of changes. The most noticeable one is that we've redesigned the beach summary page to offer you more information and make it look a lot nicer :) You'll see that now for Spanish beaches, you can view the topographic map of the beach area. This is a feature for Premium users that we believe will be very useful, both when you go to beaches you didn't know and to discover more details about the ones you frequently visit. In topographic maps, you can see the contour lines with altitude indicators, where paths and trails run, and the shape of cliffs and islets. We're sure you'll find it very interesting!
Additionally, we've changed the data source for the UV index and for the sunrise and sunset times, as well as moon times, so they're always available.
As you know, in the latest updates we've made many changes, and we continue to work to improve the app even more. For now, we’d like to remind you that you can try the new Apple Watch app, which offers more forecasts in a much clearer way, and that the app now also includes beaches from Italy (in addition to Spain and Portugal). Oh, and we encourage you to discover the recommended activities, which we are gradually adding to some beaches.
As we always tell you, we appreciate it when you rate the beaches you know and share photos of them so that other users can get a better idea of what they're like. We hope you can enjoy the beach now that the longer days and spring weather make it so appealing.

Changes: Feb 28, 2024
Version 7.0.2
Hello everyone! We hope you're eager for the beach. Whether you have it "on your doorstep" or if you want to plan a getaway because it's further away, in version 7.0 we bring you A LOT of new features that you're SURE to love:
- New app for Apple Watch: we've completely redesigned the app so you can have more information, more clearly, and it's easier to consult on your wrist. Now, for each of your favourite beaches, you can check on your watch: 1. Current data on sky condition, temperature, water temperature, humidity, precipitation, and visibility, 2. Sunrise and sunset times, moonrise and moonset times, and the UV index, 3. Wave height and swell direction, 4. Wind speed and direction, and 5. Data on sky condition, temperature, wave height and direction and UV index for the coming hours.
- Beaches of Italy: iPlaya is growing, and our beach database is not falling behind. Spain, Portugal, and now Italy, so you can enjoy the sea wherever you go. If you know some of the new beaches, we’d love it if you could rate them, so that this part of the app can gradually grow. Many thanks in advance.
- Italian: now that we have Italian beaches, we've added another language to the app. As you know, you can set your preferred language for the app in Settings.
- Recommended Activities: now, for some beaches, we have selected activities that we think might interest you (that kayak excursion to see the most hidden coves, the boat ride to see the coast from another point of view). We will be adding these recommendations little by little, depending on the season.
- In addition, we have made small adjustments and improvements to the iOS app so that everything works wonderfully.
In version 7.0.1 we have increased the number of forecast hours that Premium users can view on the Apple Watch app.
