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 Puerto takes its name from its location in the port of Torre de la Horadada itself, a circumstance that defines its urban character. It is a light-coloured sandy beach 300 metres long and 30 metres wide on average, with calm waters, a promenade and high occupancy. Access is easy on foot or by car via the N-332, with an urban bus service and toilets, foot-washing facilities, cleaning and a tourist office. The entry expressly states that the foot-washing facilities replace showers, a practical aspect relevant to everyday use.
