Characteristics published by official sources

Playa Bil Bil - Arroyo de La Miel brings two names together in a compact urban beach: 270 metres long and 56 metres wide. Its dark sand and location in Arroyo de la Miel, Benalmádena, form the physical setting of a place described as very popular and offering a high level of services. The beach's identity therefore rests on its urban integration and the continuity between both sectors. As a practical reference, the record specifically highlights the availability of services, although it does not list them.
