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.

Characteristics published by official sources

Cala de la Barra is a small rocky, isolated cove at the end of Cabo de la Nao. Its shore measures 100 metres long and barely 2 metres wide, within a specially protected natural setting in the Red Natura 2000 network, with vegetation, calm waters and an anchorage area. Access combines a difficult walk with arrival by boat. The listing adds a diving service and anchorage, practical references consistent with a narrow, secluded site.
