The beach is stunning with soft sand and a lovely wooded area nearby. There are also restaurants, public restrooms, showers, and parking available in the vicinity.

The bay is lovely and features several mature palm trees along the rocky shoreline. While the beach is mostly sandy, the sand is a bit dirty and grey with some stones scattered about. There is only a small amount of parking available on the roundabout above the beach, likely utilized by those who own or rent the many apartments surrounding the area. Additionally, there is a restaurant located at the entrance to the beach.

The beach is simply breathtaking with its dark, velvety sand and lush tropical gardens in the background. The aroma wafting from the restaurant up the hill is so enticing. Despite the large number of visitors, the ample parking space and lack of overcrowding make for a pleasant experience. Even though it was early in the season, the water felt warm and inviting. I highly recommend this beach.

The beach is sandy and has a cozy vibe, with pleasant views of Almuñecar Bay. There are also some good nearby options for both dining and accommodations.
