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.

Characteristics published by official sources

Playa Coroso is the large sandy beach near the urban centre of Ribeira: its 700 metres of fine sand form an urban frontage with a seafront promenade, vegetation and sheltered waters. High occupancy is due to its extent, proximity to the town and extensive facilities, in a semi-urban setting. Access is easy on foot or by car, with parking for more than 100 spaces and an interurban bus service. Toilets, showers, food services, nautical hire, a yacht club and anchorage meet the main needs.
