Playa de la Calahonda Swimming Forecast

Nerja · Spain

Playa de la Calahonda scores 77/100 for swimming today at its best ability level (advanced). The beach faces SE. A small, sheltered SE-facing cove below high cliffs, reached only on foot via a stepped arch passage and zigzag steps — no vehicle access, difficult for reduced mobility. The shore is dark sand mixed with gravel and pebbles, rocky at the edges, with clear water that deepens quickly offshore. Calm conditions suit swimming, snorkelling, and paddleboarding rather than surfing or kiteboarding. Lifeguard and flag service operate during the summer season.
