Mostly sunbathing, swimming and informal beach volley; the swimming probably starts at first light on this east-facing shore, and the games fill up late afternoon once the sand goes into shade.
The nets at this end fill up late afternoon once the sun drops behind the buildings and the sand goes into shade. Games are open — you hang around the edge and get waved in.

This is the line where the Malva-rosa crowd stops. People walk past the last restaurant terraces, cross the invisible municipal border, and drop their towels in the first 200m of Patacona — same sea, half the density, no stalls behind you.
most people walk in from the Malva-rosa paseo rather than arriving on the Patacona side

The regulars swim at first light, year round, including January. Worth knowing this coast faces east — the sun comes up out of the sea here, so the ritual is sunrise, not sunset; the evening light show happens behind you over the huerta.
