Guide

Good to know

Plan for the Trafalgar lighthouse walk
A scenic walk to the lighthouse offers spectacular sunset views and is frequently cited as a highlight of visiting.
Visit in winter or early morning
Summer weekends draw crowds and parking fills by late morning, while winter and early visits offer peaceful conditions.
Expect seaweed and rocky areas
The beach has seaweed in certain seasons and rocky sections, especially on the left side, making swimming variable.
Parking costs three to five euros
A paid lot sits two minutes from the beach; rates vary by season from three euros off-season.
Watch for unleashed dogs
Despite no-dogs-allowed signs, many dogs swim and roam unleashed, and dunes smell of dog waste due to lack of facilities.
