Following Bill's advice (thanks!), I checked out this beach, and I approve! Sand for tanning, swimming in peace, and a rocky area to see some fish. There is even a shower, which is rare around here! Parking is nearby, and it's easy to access.

Why this is my favorite beach in this nature reserve: - Easily accessible, the parking lot is not far away - A shower to rinse off, which is rare in this area - Pretty coastline, especially with Isleta del Moro right next door, an islet and an observation deck with a panoramic view - Above all: tons of fish to see while snorkeling near Isleta del Moro, actually. - A really nice restaurant to try, with good paellas right above the beach: La Ola
