Characteristics published by official sources

Playa de los Tiestos is a small natural gravel cove with low occupancy, integrated into a specially protected setting in the Red Natura 2000 network. It measures 40 metres long and 20 metres wide, with vegetation, pebbles, calm waters and an anchorage area. Access on foot is difficult, or it can be reached by boat; there is parking on the approach road. The listing warns of areas at risk of falling rocks, a practical point to bear in mind, and also records naturist use and diving.
