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

La Calita is a small cove with a wild appearance between the beaches of La Muralla and Santa Catalina or Vista Hermosa. Its 140 metres in length and 20-metre width combine golden sand with rocky outcrops in the water, within a semi-urban setting with vegetation and calm waters. The presence of rock explains the beach’s association with spearfishing and scuba diving, activities expressly indicated. It is reached through the Vistahermosa development, with parking for more than 100 spaces.
