Playa del Chorillo

Playa del Chorillo is an urban beach in Ceuta stretching roughly 850 meters long and 30 meters wide with golden-colored sand. The shoreline faces the Mediterranean Sea and includes facilities such as showers, restrooms, and parking areas.

The beach formed during Ceuta's maritime development in the 20th century as a key part of its coastal infrastructure. Over time the area expanded to accommodate growing use by residents and visitors.

The beach draws local residents who use it as a daily gathering spot during warmer months. You will notice families setting up along the sand and people enjoying casual meals with friends as the sun sets.

The beach is easily accessible and has showers and restrooms located throughout the area. Parking is available nearby, and you can rent equipment for water activities on-site.

The location where Mediterranean and Atlantic currents meet creates special water conditions that allow swimming year-round. This feature makes the beach unusual for a spot in this region.
