Beach at a glance
What it is like
Playa de Meñakoz is a natural, isolated pebble beach with a 400-metre-long and 60-metre-wide shore in front of a cliff. Its stony composition and the absence of facilities on the beach itself define a quiet setting, also identified as suitable for nudism. Access is easy on foot from the parking area, where an unimproved coastal path passes and connects with Barrika and Atxabiribil. There is an interurban bus service and parking for fewer than 50 vehicles.
