Playa de Santa Bárbara, Mediterranean beach in La Línea de la Concepción, Spain.
Playa de Santa Bárbara stretches for about 900 meters with dark sand and moderate wave conditions along the Mediterranean coast of southern Spain. The water depth and conditions vary along the shore, offering different settings for swimming and wading.
The beach developed during the 20th century as La Línea de la Concepción grew into a coastal town. Maritime activities in this region have roots that stretch back much further into the history of southern Spanish coastal settlements.
The surrounding area has deep roots in fishing traditions that shape daily life and local practices today. You can observe small fishing vessels and maritime customs woven into how people here work and spend their time.
The beach offers sun lounger rentals, showers, restrooms, and over 100 parking spaces within walking distance. All these facilities are conveniently located near the water, making a visit straightforward.
Eastern winds here regularly reach speeds around 25 kilometers per hour, creating favorable conditions for water sports throughout the swimming season. These wind patterns make the bay particularly suited to certain activities like windsurfing.
