August is one of the liveliest months in Benicàssim. Although high temperatures invite you to look for refreshing plans and moments to relax, the town continues to offer plenty of activities to make the most of the summer.
Benicàssim maintains a full calendar of cultural, family-friendly and leisure activities for all audiences. Theatre, open-air cinema, activities by the sea and natural surroundings become perfect alternatives to combine the Mediterranean lifestyle with new experiences.
Beach and pool: the summer classics to beat the heat
The beach remains one of the best options to cool down during the hottest days of summer. However, choosing the right time is important: early mornings and the late afternoon are ideal for enjoying the sea with more pleasant temperatures.
In Benicàssim, you will find different beaches where you can walk, swim or practice water sports such as paddle surfing, kayaking or snorkelling. In addition, the seafront promenade allows you to explore the coastline on foot or by bike while enjoying the sea breeze.
During the hottest hours of the day, the Hotel Bersoca pool is the perfect option. A space designed to cool off, relax and enjoy time with your family without having to travel, with adapted areas so that all guests can make the most of their holiday.
Cultural activities to enjoy summer afternoons
When the sun goes down, Benicàssim changes pace and some of the most special summer plans begin. During the second half of August, the town’s cultural programme continues with activities for different audiences.
On 18 August, the Parc del Trenet hosts the activity “Exploring Parc del Trenet”, a proposal designed to discover this iconic Benicàssim location in a different way. It is the perfect plan for families looking to combine learning, play and local culture in an outdoor setting.
For those who enjoy stories and literature, “Contacontes a la Mar” is another of the summer’s highlights. A storytelling activity by the sea that transforms reading into a unique experience, perfect for enjoying with the family and sharing a special moment during your holiday.
In addition, theatre is also part of the summer programme with performances such as “Yo no moriré de amor”, an opportunity to enjoy the performing arts and experience a different evening after a day at the beach.
Summer cinema under the stars
One of the most special experiences of the Mediterranean summer is enjoying cinema outdoors. During August, Benicàssim continues its summer cinema programme, a perfect alternative to end the day by the sea.
On Tuesday 18 August at 10:00 pm, Almadraba Beach will host the screening of “El peor trabajo de mi vida”.
One week later, on Tuesday 25 August at 10:00 pm, Heliópolis Beach will host the film “La infiltrada”.
These plans allow visitors to enjoy a different kind of evening, combining the magic of cinema with the sea breeze and the unique atmosphere of Benicàssim’s beaches.
