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 A Rocha, also called de Anido, is located in the heart of the urban area of Muros and offers a small beach of dark sand and calm waters. Its 65-metre length and 30-metre width are integrated into a semi-urban frontage, with vegetation and low occupancy despite its central location. The beach has a seafront promenade and an anchorage area, two features reinforcing its relationship with the town’s maritime frontage. It can be reached by car via the C-550 and by interurban bus; it has showers, foot-washing facilities and cleaning.
