Beach · Banda á Seca, Spain

Praia da Alta

A beach in Banda á Seca, Spain. It is fairly sheltered, with open water only toward the east, so waves pick up when the wind blows from there.

There are some trees around the beach (trees around 11 m tall), enough for patches of shade. Tides matter here: the range is about 3.0 m.
