This is an official forecast for the stated period, not an observation taken at the beach.

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 Las Playitas extends for 700 metres over a mixed surface of sand and cobbles. Its 30-metre width, semi-urban frontage and medium occupancy create an open-scale beach, usually subject to wind and calm waters. The beach is linked to the surroundings of Gran Tarajal and offers catering, sun-lounger and parasol hire, nautical activities and a sports area. It is reached on foot or by car, with G. Tarajal bus route 12 and access for people with reduced mobility.
