Playa del Charco, Mediterranean beach in Retamar, Almería, Spain

The beach extends along the Costa de Almería coastline, featuring natural sand formations and clear Mediterranean waters suitable for swimming and water activities.

The coastal area of Retamar has transformed from a traditional fishing settlement into a modern beach destination while maintaining its connection to maritime activities.

Local fishermen continue their centuries-old traditions near the beach, bringing fresh catches to the neighboring restaurants that serve regional Andalusian specialties.

The beach provides multiple access points from Retamar, with parking facilities available near the shore and regular bus services connecting to central Almería.
