Sandy beach · Arnela, Spain

Praia de Arnela

Praia de Arnela lies in Arnela, Spain, with a sandy shore. It is fairly sheltered, with open water only toward the north-north-east, so waves pick up when the wind blows from there. The nearest chart sounding shows about 4.4 m of water 100 m offshore. Further out it reaches roughly 5.2 m at 400 m. Bathing water has been rated Excellent in each of the last 4 seasons. The surroundings are wooded (trees around 17 m tall), so there is natural shade to find in the afternoon. Tides matter here: the range is about 3.2 m.
