Valdevaqueros, Beach in Tarifa, Spain.
The beach stretches 4050 meters along the coast with golden sand and clear waters, offering views of the African coastline across the Strait of Gibraltar.
The beach area contains remnants of a coastal battery at Punta Paloma, which was protected by a large dune system that remains present today.
Local establishments called chiringuitos serve traditional Andalusian seafood dishes, reflecting the Mediterranean coastal gastronomy of southern Spain.
The beach provides facilities including equipment rentals, showers, toilets, and designated areas for water sports activities with professional instructors.
