Beach at a glance
What it is like
Playa de Xiglu is the name given to a small part of Playa de Barro, located in an urban setting on the protected eastern coast. It is 30 metres long and 12 metres wide, with sand, pebbles and white rock, vegetation and a semi-urban frontage. Its high visitor numbers contrast with its very limited dimensions. The stated access is easy on foot or by car from the N-634; the entry mentions a campsite about 100 metres away but records no other specific beach facilities.
