Characteristics published by official sources

Playa de la Cruz, also known as Playa del Pozo, forms a white sandy beach 320 metres long and 60 metres wide, facing a mountainous landscape. It is an isolated beach within a protected natural area, with high occupancy, calm waters and the possibility of naturism. Access is easy on foot, by car or by boat; the listing indicates between 50 and 100 parking spaces beside the LZ-2. No other services are detailed, so its scale and mountainous setting are the key features of the place.
