Access is through Avinguda La Marina, kilometre 2.6. Take the detour that goes down Avinguda Navegant Pepe Ribes until reaching the parking area of the beach.
From this idyllic little beach, various aquatic routes can be taken. This description is of the right side (south area) with an approximate duration of 30 minutes. Venture towards the point where the sand meets a rocky bottom, initially seen as bare rock slabs, then adopting the form of rocks covered in algae.
Gradually, the seagrass meadow will appear, covering the rocky islets on the left. Among the seagrass, numerous species can be observed, such as salps patrolling these underwater gardens. It will also be easy to find needlefish.
The maximum depth does not exceed four or five metres. Once a small islet is reached (an extension of the rocky coastline), the route returns closer to the coast, where the bottom is rockier and less deep. (1)
