Mostly dog walking, with dogs off the lead, probably busiest around midday out of season and early or late in summer, while owners stand and talk near the ramp.
Dog walkingthe marked dog stretch at Platja de l'Arbre del Gos, around the beach access ramp
This is the one bit of sand within reach of the city where dogs run loose legally, so people drive across Valencia for it and the same faces turn up daily. Owners stand and talk in a knot near the ramp while the dogs sort themselves out in the shallows.

Dog walkingPlatja de l'Arbre del Gos dog stretch, off-season
Out of season the rhythm inverts — midday, when the sand is warm and there's nobody to complain, is the busy hour, and it stretches long because people stay to talk. In August it's the opposite: sunrise or after eight, because the sand is unshaded and burns paws all afternoon.
