Beach · Fontáns, Spain

Cala do Faro

A beach in Fontáns, Spain. The bay opens toward the west across about 5 km of open sea, so expect waves when the wind comes from that side. The bottom drops away quickly: about 6 m of water only 50 m from the shore. Further out it reaches roughly 18.2 m at 400 m. There are some trees around the beach (trees around 11 m tall), enough for patches of shade. Tides matter here: the range is about 2.9 m.
