Beach at a glance
What it is like
Playa de la Morena is distinguished by its rocky setting and the nearby naturist campsite, on a mountainous stretch of coast with vegetation. Its 140-metre length and 40-metre width combine golden sand and gravel, with a semi-urban character and moderate waves. The GR 92 trail passes nearby and the beach forms part of a ZEPA. Access is easy on foot and is also possible by car or boat; there is parking for fewer than 50 vehicles, an urban bus service, lifeguard cover and first aid.
