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 Gamba is an urban rocky cove measuring 100 metres in length and 25 metres in width, with a seafront promenade and anchorage. Its proximity to the airport and the heavy maritime traffic are expressly identified as features of the surroundings, while recorded occupancy is low and the waters are calm. It is easily reached on foot, by car or by boat from the road to Ca'n Pastilla, with parking for fewer than 50 vehicles and an urban bus service. Puerto Deportivo de Cala Gamba completes the practical reference for this urban coastal stretch.
