Cala El Pedregal, Rocky beach cove in Castro-Urdiales, Spain.
The natural pool stretches 15 meters along the coast, featuring stone steps and graduated platforms built into granite formations against coastal cliffs.
The cove developed through centuries of natural erosion processes, creating a tunnel at the cliff base that channels seawater during high tide.
Located in the Barrio de los Marineros district, this swimming spot represents a traditional gathering place for local residents of Castro-Urdiales.
The beach maintains daily cleaning services in summer months and includes nearby parking spaces, though it operates without lifeguard supervision.
Seawater flows through an underwater passage beneath the cliffs, forming a natural swimming pool that refreshes with each incoming tide.
