Playa Calamocarro

Playa Calamocarro is a Mediterranean beach in Ceuta featuring a pebbly and gravelly shoreline that stretches along the coast. The beach is naturally bordered by a pine forest that separates it from the urban area and creates a sheltered setting.

The beach formed part of a strategic coastal position that connected Mediterranean trade networks and North African territories over centuries. Its role changed as different powers controlled the region, reflecting the area's complex maritime history.

The beach serves as a meeting place where locals and visitors gather to enjoy the Mediterranean setting and views toward the Moroccan coast. Its location at the crossroads of European and North African territories gives it a distinct character shaped by centuries of regional exchange.

The beach is accessible by road and has basic facilities to maintain cleanliness and safety standards. The access is straightforward, and upkeep services ensure a comfortable visit for all who come here.

The beach sits within a protected conservation area designated to safeguard bird populations and regional wildlife. This ecological role makes it valuable beyond recreation, as it serves as a habitat for migratory and resident species.
