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.

Beach at a glance

What it is like

Characteristics published by official sources

Playa Fuente del Gallo stretches below a steep cliff, forming a semi-urban beach of golden sand that reaches 1,200 metres. The sand disappears completely at high tide, a decisive feature of its morphology, while moderate waves and the reference to windsurfing complete its profile. Occupancy is medium, and access is easy on foot or by car, with parking for between 50 and 100 spaces, an interurban bus, toilets, catering and a designated surfing area.
