Beach at a glance

What it is like

Characteristics published by official sources

Playa Cenicero-Las Lindes forms a broad urban stretch 1,400 metres long and 60 metres wide, with dark sand. It is located in the Torrox-Costa area, next to the Torcasol development, so its immediate landscape is defined by the relationship between the beach and the residential fabric. The listing also notes that the surroundings offer numerous services, although it does not enumerate them. Its length and width give it a notable presence within the urban frontage, while the proximity of the development provides the clearest practical reference for locating it.
