Characteristics published by official sources

Playa del Trabucador forms a 6,165-metre arm of golden sand, washed on both sides and isolated from urban areas. This geographical configuration, described as unique in the province, creates two shores with different conditions: calm waters on one side and moderate waves on the other. The wetland frontage and protected setting complete an open landscape accompanied by vegetation. Access is by car via the TV-3405, with more than 100 parking spaces, and the beach has cleaning and an area suitable for surfing.
