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 del Cuerno is a small shell-shaped beach formed by gravel and dark sand. The rocky promontory of La Peñona separates this corner from Salinas beach; it is home to the Phillipe Cousteau Anchor Museum. The beach measures 100 metres in length and 25 metres in width, on an urban frontage with a seafront promenade and strong waves. Access is via a stone staircase; the main services are about 150 metres away, in Salinas.
