Guide

Approach and anchoring

Sheltered from NE through E to SE, open to the west. The shelf drops off fast from the beach and is too deep to anchor, with poor holding.

Practical

About six DRNA mooring buoys, marked for day use. Reef snorkelling off the beach. No services.

Ashore

A trail leads over the hill to Flamenco beach.
