It is a large cove, more than 200 meters long. At the beginning it is full of stones but as we get closer to the shore it becomes a sandy beach with fine and pleasant sand. The entrance to the water is progressive, ideal for children to playr. On both sides of the cove there are eroded walls formed by fossil dunes, and that hide countless places to explore. The quality of the water is exceptional and the marine fauna that can be observed doing snorkeling is also remarkable, especially near the rock formations formed by the fossil dunes.

The beach is frequented by both naturist bathers and textiles. In summer the influx is moderate, due to the ease of arriving, it's easy to find some vans or caravans camped.

On one side, to the south past the farmhouse of El Plomo, there is a rocky ledge known as Punta de El Plomo. There was a watchtower in the sixteenth century from where the guards, who lived in the ranch of El Plomo, lookk out the sea before the threat of the Berber pirates.
