Beach at a glance
What it is like
Playa de La Isla takes its name from the islet situated opposite its left-hand side, which becomes connected to the beach at low tide by a tombolo. It is an urban beach of golden sand, 800 metres long and 50 metres wide, with a promenade, vegetation and strong swell, usually accompanied by wind. High visitor numbers are matched by good facilities and a children's area. It is reached by car from the N-634, with between 50 and 100 parking spaces, showers, toilets and first aid.
