Beach at a glance
What it is like
Playa de la Guardada is a small, little-frequented beach, recognisable by its surface of rounded stones and strong waves. It lies at the foot of a cliff, in a semi-urban setting with vegetation and a seafront promenade, included in a Special Protection Area for Birds (ZEPA) and a Site of Community Importance (SCI). Its 60-metre length and barely 5-metre width explain its limited scale. Access combines an easy section on foot with the possibility of arriving by car from the N-632; there are between 50 and 100 parking spaces. Puerto de San Esteban is the nearest marina.
