Overview

Litoral Park is an expansive green space located directly along the Mediterranean coastline in the Grau de Castelló district. The park acts as a functional transition zone between the urban residential area and the nearby port facilities. Its design incorporates extensive pathways, integrated landscaping, and designated zones for leisure activities. The site provides unobstructed views of the sea and serves as a primary recreational corridor for pedestrians and cyclists visiting the maritime area. Vegetation within the park is selected for resilience against the high salinity and strong coastal winds typical of the Costa del Azahar. The layout includes modern playground structures and open grassy patches maintained for communal use.
