Long, empty beach in front of the salt flats of the Cabo de Gata natural park. Almería's two winds both work: the levante (E) and the poniente (W–SW) run side-shore along the coast, so there is something to ride on most windy days of the year. The water gets deep quickly and there is little shelter, so it is for independent intermediates. There are no facilities on the beach itself.
