Playa de las Gaviotas

Las Gaviotas beach extends 250 meters along the coastline, featuring dark sand shores bordered by rocky cliffs and Mediterranean vegetation.

The beach received its name from the seagulls that have nested in the surrounding cliffs for centuries, serving as natural indicators for local fishermen.

Las Gaviotas includes designated naturist areas where visitors practice traditional clothing-optional bathing according to local customs.

Visitors need to walk from designated parking areas to reach the beach, which offers basic facilities including waste collection and regular cleaning services.

The beach maintains specific environmental zones with protected native plant species growing directly on the sand near the water.
