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 Ribeira Grande is a tiny urban beach sheltered by the breakwater of Corrubedo port, beside Ribeiriña. It measures only 15 metres long and 10 metres wide, with golden sand, calm waters and moderate use. This position, protected by port infrastructure, defines both its shape and its scale. Access is easy on foot or by boat, with fewer than 50 parking spaces and an interurban bus; it also has bins, cleaning and an anchorage area.
