Environmental estimate

Conditions less favourable for jellyfish arrival

What it is like

Characteristics published by official sources

Playa del Confital is an isolated beach of golden sand and rock, 180 metres long and 25 metres wide, facing a semi-urban coastline. Its low occupancy contrasts with the usual strong waves and the presence of a surfing area, features that define an open, natural shore despite its urban proximity. Access is easy on foot or by car from the GC-1, with parking, an interurban bus service and litter bins. It also has a lifeguard service during the period indicated in the entry.
