Beach at a glance
What it is like
Playa del Ruso is an isolated cove of dark sand, set against cliffs and surrounded by vegetation. Its 200 metres in length and 24 metres in width form a beach with calm waters and low occupancy, with nudism possible according to the listing. It is reached on foot, with great difficulty, from the N-340, with an interurban bus stop 1 kilometre away in La Rábita. The absence of facilities reinforces its secluded character.
