Beach at a glance
What it is like
Playa de Los Bajos retains a natural appearance, without buildings or infrastructure, in an isolated stretch of pale beige, coarse-grained sand. Its 700 metres in length and 60 metres in width run alongside a pedestrian path and another cycle lane integrated into the surroundings. Occupancy is medium, with moderate waves, and the area is linked to the protection of Turaniana and the Posidonia barrier reef. It is reached on foot or by car; there is cleaning, litter bins and a surfing area.
