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 de Punta Grande is a small, lonely landing place in Frontera, battered by waves and situated opposite the Roques de Salmor. The shore combines rounded stones and rock, measures 20 metres long and 5 metres wide, and lies on a semi-urban frontage with vegetation, low occupancy and strong waves. The entry itself warns that the cliff area is not suitable for bathing. Signposted access is easy on foot or by car via the road to Las Puntas, with parking and an interurban bus.
