Environmental estimate

Conditions less favourable for jellyfish arrival

Forecast wind and the regional coastline orientation are less favourable for jellyfish transport towards the shore. This is a limited-confidence regional physical indicator; it does not confirm the presence or absence of jellyfish at this beach.

Characteristics published by official sources

Es Caragol is an isolated cove near the lighthouse of Cabo Salinas, with an extensive shore of fine white sand. Its 500 metres of length and 60 metres of width extend in front of dunes and vegetation, within an area protected as an Área Natural de Especial Interés. Occupancy is recorded as medium and the waves are usually moderate. It can be reached on foot or by boat; one access route begins near the lighthouse and the other crosses the Sa Vall estate with its administrator’s authorisation.
