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.

What it is like

Characteristics published by official sources

Cala de la Creu is an urban cove of golden sand and rounded stones, recognisable for the boats and fishermen's huts that form part of its image. It is 60 metres long and 15 metres wide, with a seafront promenade, vegetation and a shore exposed to wind and strong swell. It is also used as shelter for boats anchoring on days of easterly storms, and the listing highlights the richness of its underwater fauna. It is reached on foot or by car, with fewer than 50 parking spaces.
