Lastre, Olive sand beach in La Unión, Spain
Lastre Beach extends for 50 meters in length and 40 meters in width, featuring a distinctive olive-colored sand along the Mediterranean coast.
The beach area developed alongside La Unión's mining industry during the 19th century, when the region experienced substantial economic growth through mineral extraction.
Local fishermen maintain traditional fishing practices at Lastre Beach, using small boats and nets to catch Mediterranean fish species.
The beach provides essential facilities including showers, toilets, and waste bins, with designated parking spaces available within walking distance.
The sand's rare olive color results from the presence of mineral deposits from former mining operations in the surrounding mountains.
