Beach at a glance
What it is like
Playa Cala Sardina is a wild, isolated beach of dark sand on the outskirts of Torreguadiaro. Its frontage is 900 metres long and 60 metres wide, a considerable scale for a place that retains a secluded character. The large open area extending along the beach forms part of its practical layout and is where motorhomes are usually found, according to the listing. The combination of extent, dark sand, isolation and open area defines a distinct beach within the San Roque coastline.
