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 Langosteira combines a semi-urban character with a large expanse of white sand: 1,970 metres long and 26 metres wide. The promenade, vegetation and anchorage accompany calm waters within a semi-urban frontage, with medium occupancy. Its lengthwise profile and ease of access distinguish it from the smaller beaches in the surrounding area. It is easily reached on foot or by car from the AC-445, with parking for between 50 and 100 vehicles and an interurban connection. Toilets, showers, foot-washing stations, cleaning and a food service complete the facilities.
