Rio Calma Artificial Beach, Artificial beach in Costa Calma, Pájara, Spain.
Rio Calma Artificial Beach is a man-made swimming area in Costa Calma with fine sand and shallow water that slopes gently. Breakwaters shield the waters from strong currents and rough conditions, creating calm swimming conditions.
This beach was created in the 1990s to meet growing tourism demand along Fuerteventura's coast. The project transformed this section from a natural coast into a managed recreation area.
The beach demonstrates how locals and visitors use an engineered space for daily seaside activities and social gatherings. Modern facilities blend with the relaxed way people enjoy the coast here.
The area offers changing rooms, showers, and equipment rental services for a comfortable visit. Dining options and cafes are located nearby, making it easy to find food and refreshments.
The water stays calm year-round because the artificial design blocks strong waves that would normally occur in the open ocean. This means swimmers can enjoy predictable conditions regardless of the season.
