What it is like

Characteristics published by official sources

Playa de los Caballos, also known as Umbreda, is an isolated beach surrounded by high cliffs. Its golden sand extends for 220 metres, with a width of 40 metres, vegetation, wind and moderate swell in a protected setting. Although access on foot is listed as easy, the listing warns that it is dangerous, has no stairs and may be affected by rockfalls at the cliff edge. Low occupancy and the absence of facilities complete the identity of this small sandy beach.
