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 San Felipe is a semi-urban beach of golden sand, calm waters and vegetation, 220 metres long and 20 metres wide. Its also semi-urban frontage combines medium occupancy with a natural setting whose state of conservation is described as somewhat deficient, a relevant feature for understanding the place without idealising it. It is accessed by car via the CP-3612, and there is an interurban bus 0.5 kilometres away. The details record a tourist office, but no other notable beach services.
