Playa de la Glea, Mediterranean beach in Dehesa de Campoamor, Spain
Playa de la Glea is a sandy beach in Dehesa de Campoamor along Spain's Mediterranean coast, stretching about 500 meters and bordered by red sandstone cliffs on its northern side. The beach extends toward the nearby sports marina Miguel Caballero and provides a typical seaside setting.
This beach section has retained its original coastal landscape over many years with minimal development pressures. The addition of an elevated walkway along the shore was one of the few significant infrastructure changes to reach this area.
Local eating places here serve typical Mediterranean dishes that draw both residents and visitors during warm months. The beach itself functions as a gathering spot where people swim, walk, and spend leisure time together.
The beach offers lifeguards, sun loungers, beach bars, and water sports equipment rentals during summer months. Visitors should plan to arrive early to enjoy calm conditions and avoid peak crowds.
At the southern end sits a dry ravine called Rio Nacimiento that transforms into a water channel during heavy rainfall. This natural system reveals how water flows across this coastline during wetter seasons.
