Beach at a glance
What it is like
Playa del Varadero is an isolated, little-frequented cove in San Andrés y Sauces, with 140 metres of dark sand and a width of only 3.5 metres. The mountainous frontage and protection as a Special Protection Area for Birds and Biosphere Reserve reinforce its secluded character, while moderate waves accompany low occupancy. It can be reached by car from the LP-1, with parking available; the listing records a food service but does not indicate any other facilities. Its narrow, elongated shape is its most distinctive physical feature.
