Environmental estimate

Conditions less favourable for jellyfish arrival

Forecast wind and the regional coastline orientation are less favourable for jellyfish transport towards the shore. This is a limited-confidence regional physical indicator; it does not confirm the presence or absence of jellyfish at this beach.

Beach at a glance

What it is like

Characteristics published by official sources

Playa de Almaciga occupies an isolated stretch opposite a cliff, in a protected rocky setting where vegetation accompanies a dark-sand beach. Its 300-metre length and 35-metre width form a mixed strip of sand and rock, usually exposed to strong waves. The main access is by car via the TF-134, with fewer than 50 parking spaces; an interurban line also serves it. Although it has no general facilities, it does have litter bins, cleaning and a catering service.
