La Calita, Rock and white sand beach in Nigrán, Spain.

La Calita is a beach stretching roughly 130 meters along the coast with a natural mix of rocky outcrops and white sand sections. The cove faces the Atlantic and creates a varied landscape where both stone formations and sandy areas meet the water.

The beach has been central to Nigrán's fishing life for generations, with local boats launching from its natural coves. This long history of maritime work continues to shape the character of this coastal area.

Local people use this beach for traditional fishing practices and gathering seafood when the tide goes out. It remains a working place where you can see how residents connect with the sea.

The beach is regularly cleaned with waste bins available for visitors. Parking is nearby and the beach is easily reached on foot from the town center.

At low tide, natural rock pools appear between the stones filled with small sea creatures. These hidden spots feel like tiny aquariums waiting to be explored.
