The Playa de El Chinarral is a small and secluded beach located in the Spanish city of Algeciras. It stretches over a distance of 700 meters with a width of approximately 10 meters. The beach is characterized by its fine sand, though it is also common to encounter stones due to the presence of nearby reefs. However, the beach's landscape is noted to be sunken, attributed to the diminishing amount of sand each season. The presence of brown algae and stagnant waters further define its natural characteristics.
The beach is situated in a small bay, nestled between the marina and the centennial park in Algeciras. Despite its picturesque setting, access to the beach is challenging due to its location amidst private houses. The narrow passage leading to the beach is described as dangerous and deteriorating, with no apparent maintenance. This difficult access, combined with its small size, results in the beach not being frequently visited.
Despite these challenging conditions, the beach is considered visually appealing, particularly when viewed from a distance. However, it has received criticism for its lack of cleanliness, with reports of garbage, algae, and sewage present on the beach.
Best restaurants near Playa de El Chinarral include Comidas Caseras lo de Macu, Pollo Barcala, Domino's Pizza, Ze Yun Restaurante Chino Algeciras, Restaurante el buen provecho, Mesón El Conejo, Restaurante El Pargo and Libano bar y restaurante.

Complaints also focus on the presence of brown algae, stagnant waters, garbage, and an unpleasant smell.
