Beach at a glance

What it is like

Characteristics published by official sources

Playa Venus-Bajadilla is an urban beach 700 metres long and 40 metres wide, with golden-toned gravel. Its proximity to Marbella Fishing Port is the environmental feature that best explains its identity and places it in direct relationship with port activity. The gravel surface distinguishes it from the nearby sandy beaches described in other records. No services or access conditions are detailed, so the practical information is limited to its location beside the port.
