Playa "El Rodeito", Beach in Marbella, Spain.
Playa El Rodeito is a beach on the Mediterranean coast near the Rodeo Apartments residential area, featuring soft sand and clear water. The cove has a modest size with pine trees and low buildings framing the shoreline, creating a calm setting.
This stretch became part of Marbella's coastal development in the 1960s as tourism began reshaping the Costa del Sol. It has remained primarily a residential beach without the major commercial transformation seen in other nearby areas.
Local residents use this stretch for everyday beach activities like swimming and walking, especially during warmer months. Families gather here to spend time together without the crowds found at more central beach areas.
The beach is accessible around the clock daily and parking is available near the residential complex. Getting there on foot from the main road requires a short walk through the residential area.
A small rock formation at the eastern end provides wind shelter and rewards exploration by visitors. This natural feature often goes unnoticed despite adding character to the location and becoming accessible at lower water levels.
