Playa de Cabo de Gata Swimming Forecast

La Fabriquilla · Spain

Playa de Cabo de Gata scores 77/100 for swimming today at its best ability level (expert). The beach faces SW. A 600 m white-sand beach on the SW-facing side of a volcanic headland, within a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and marine park. The headland shelters it from Levante wind, making it a flatwater option — noted for canoe use — when easterlies affect other park beaches, though it stays exposed to Poniente swell. Backed by volcanic cliffs, near a volcanic reef feature. Underwater fishing and motorised watercraft are banned throughout the park.
