Beach at a glance
What it is like
Playa de Fontaíña is an artificial beach created on the right bank of the Verdugo river, just before its mouth. Its shore combines white sand and gravel over 150 metres, with barely 4 metres of width, in a semi-urban setting with trees and a recreation area with tables. Calm waters and medium occupancy complete this riverside public-use space. It is easily reached on foot or by car from the N-550, with parking for between 50 and 100 vehicles, access for people with reduced mobility, showers, toilets and a children’s playground.
