Playa de La Cortina is a breathtaking beach known for its unspoilt beauty and open spaces adorned with wild flowers. The beach is characterized by its unique natural features, including spectacular coves and cliffs. Notably, the beach is accessible only during low tide when the water recedes far enough to reveal a path through the large stones and rocks that otherwise block the way. The journey to the beach involves a 15 to 20-minute trek from Cala Lulu, navigating through rocks, small coves, and varied terrain.
The beach is also known for its tranquility and is often described as a 'virgin paradise'. However, visitors are advised to pay attention to the tide times as it can be dangerous to arrive during high tide, and getting stuck there when the tide rises can be a unique experience. It is recommended to wear water shoes due to the rocky terrain and to bring sufficient water. Visitors are also urged to take responsibility for their trash to preserve the pristine condition of the beach.
Visitor reviews highlight the unspoilt beauty and tranquility of the beach, with many praising its wild flowers, spectacular cove, and magical atmosphere. The beach's inaccessibility during high tide adds to its allure, making it a 'Virgin paradise' worth the journey. However, visitors complain about the difficulty in reaching the beach due to large rocks and the necessity of low tide, with some noting the potential danger of getting stuck there when the tide rises.
