Environmental estimate

Conditions less favourable for jellyfish arrival

Forecast wind and the regional coastline orientation are less favourable for jellyfish transport towards the shore. This is a limited-confidence regional physical indicator; it does not confirm the presence or absence of jellyfish at this beach.

Characteristics published by official sources

Playa de los Risquetes is an isolated, extensive beach in Tinajo, formed by white sand, rounded stones and rock along 600 metres, with a width of 25 metres. Its mountainous frontage, vegetation and inclusion in a ZEC create an open landscape habitually exposed to strong waves and wind. Access is easy on foot or by car from the LZ-67 road, with parking for fewer than 50 vehicles. The listing also records nudism, a surf area, food service and a seafront promenade.
