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

Playa de Calabajío forms part of a succession of small beaches in the least urbanised area of Almuñécar, beside Cabria, Curumbico and Barranco de Enmedio. Its 170 metres of dark sand and 30 metres in width make up a semi-urban shore with calm waters and moderate occupancy. Access is easy on foot, by car or by boat from the N-340, with fewer than 50 parking spaces. A seafront promenade, restaurants, showers, and sun-lounger and parasol hire provide practical convenience.
