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 Canaval occupies the inlet from which it takes its name and is striking for the relationship between its short length and width: it is 80 metres long and reaches 40 metres in width. It is an isolated beach of white and golden sand with rock, a semi-urban frontage and waters described as calm, although moderate waves are also recorded. The area is protected as a Natural Monument and retains vegetation. Access on foot is difficult from the AC-173, 2 km from the interurban service; there are showers, bins and cleaning.
