Beach at a glance
What it is like
Playa del Cardón is an isolated beach of shingle and gravel, associated with a special conservation area and open towards the mountain. Its 1,500 metres of length and 27 metres of width form a broad, elongated stretch with low occupancy, wind and moderate waves under usual conditions. It is accessible on foot or by car from the GC-500, with a connection on Global route 52. Its protected character and limited facilities keep the site apart from the urban frontage.
