Characteristics published by official sources

Playa del Pocito is an isolated beach of sand and gravel located in a cultivated area, facing a mountainous setting. It is 150 metres long and 30 metres wide, has medium visitor numbers and combines moderate surf with wind. Its inclusion in a Reserva de la Biosfera completes the natural setting of the shore. It is reached by car via the LP-2, with parking and interurban bus services, practical details that are particularly relevant for a beach away from urban centres.
