It opens onto a semi-urban waterfront, has moderate waves and low visitor numbers, and is surrounded by vegetation. The listing states that the landscape has been degraded by the abandonment of former tomato-growing areas and by the dumping of rubble and rubbish. Access is easy on foot or by car, with parking, an interurban connection and facilities adapted for people with reduced mobility.
