Good to know

Come for sunsets
The beach offers views across the estuary to Santoña's lit shoreline reflecting on calm water at dusk.
Shallow water for children
The beach has calm, shallow water and warm conditions, making it suitable for young swimmers.
Visit at low tide
At high tide the beach nearly disappears, leaving little sand for swimming or walking.
Plan for summer parking
Arrive early in summer, as the lot fills quickly on warm days in this urban beach area.
Watch for strong currents
Located at a river mouth and bay entrance, the beach can experience rip currents despite calm-looking waves.
