Playa de Maro, Protected sand beach in Nerja, Spain.

The 500-meter beach features a combination of golden sand and pebbles, bordered by limestone cliffs and Mediterranean vegetation along the coastline.

The beach area contains remnants of ancient fishing settlements and includes a 16th-century watchtower that served as a defensive structure against pirates.

Local farmers maintain traditional agricultural practices in the surrounding fields, growing subtropical fruits and vegetables on terraced slopes above the beach.

The beach provides essential facilities including restrooms, showers, a beachfront restaurant, and equipment rentals for water activities from June through September.

Multiple freshwater waterfalls cascade directly into the Mediterranean Sea near the beach, creating opportunities for kayakers to observe this natural phenomenon.
