Beach at a glance
What it is like
Playa de la Gaviota, also called Fuente Ahijado, is an isolated natural beach without infrastructure and with low occupancy. Its profile consists of dark gravel along a 718-metre-long, 15-metre-wide strip, with nearby vegetation, a semi-urban frontage, moderate waves and wind. It is reached by car from the N-340, with an interurban bus service. The absence of specific facilities leaves its length, gravel and natural surroundings to define the place.
