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.

Beach at a glance

What it is like

Characteristics published by official sources

Playa de Famara stands out for its 2,800-metre length, an extensive semi-urban beach of golden sand and pebbles, 25 metres wide. Its semi-urban frontage, vegetation and setting of Protected Natural Areas, ZEC and ZEPA sites combine with wind and strong surf. Low urban density does not prevent medium visitor numbers. It is nudist and has a surfing area. Access is easy on foot or by car from the LZ-402, with fewer than 50 parking spaces, bus service, bins, cleaning, lifeguard service and first aid.
