Beach at a glance
What it is like
Playa Calaceite combines a 900-metre beach with a reduced width of 15 metres, beside the N-340 road in Torrox Costa. Dark sand, vegetation and the mountainous frontage create an isolated landscape, while its waters have moderate waves. It is easily reached on foot or by car, with fewer than 50 parking spaces and interurban transport 25 metres away. Available facilities include showers, cleaning and boat anchorage.
