Playa de Getares, Water park in Algeciras, Spain

The beach stretches along 1.5 kilometers of coastline, featuring a combination of fine sand and pebbles near the Gibraltar Bay waters.

The area received its name from an ancient Roman fish salting factory near the town of Caetaria, which transformed from Cetares to Xetares through medieval times.

Local establishments along the promenade serve traditional Andalusian seafood dishes, reflecting the regional fishing heritage of the Mediterranean coast.

Visitors can access basic facilities including showers, restrooms, and parking areas, with numerous restaurants within walking distance from the beach.

The beach location offers direct views of both the Mediterranean Sea and Atlantic Ocean, positioned at the point where these two bodies meet.
