Sandy beach · El Chaparral, Spain

Faro de Punta Paloma

Faro de Punta Paloma lies in El Chaparral, Spain, with a sandy shore. The bay opens toward the south-west across more than 50 km of open sea, so expect waves when the wind comes from that side. The nearest chart sounding shows about 4.8 m of water 150 m offshore. Further out it reaches roughly 10.9 m at 400 m. The surroundings are wooded (trees around 8 m tall), so there is natural shade to find in the afternoon. Tides matter here: the range is about 1.6 m.
