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.

What it is like

Characteristics published by official sources

Playa de Martorell is a small beach of dark sand situated at the edge of the Sardina inlet, where the ravine of the same name cuts through a basalt flow. Its 35-metre length contrasts with a width of 60 metres, forming a short, open shore facing the mountains. The surroundings retain cliffs shaped by erosion, with features such as La Punta del Bufadero, Las Bajas and the Farallón. It is easily reached on foot from the GC-202, with parking and an interurban bus.
