Playa de los Bajos

Playa de los Bajos is a semi-urban beach nestled in the town of Roquetas de Mar. Spanning 700 meters in length and 60 meters in width, this beach is known for its consistent dimensions. It is a part of a coast that features a boulevard and cycle path, providing an enjoyable environment for both pedestrians and cyclists.

Despite its urban proximity, Playa de los Bajos is surrounded by natural beauty. It is situated near a natural park and was formerly home to salt pans. Visitors to the beach praise it for its tranquility, cleanliness, and the breathtaking sea view it offers.

The beach is named 'Los Bajos' due to its shallow waters, which also make it an ideal spot for scuba diving. Additionally, there are horseback riding routes in the vicinity, adding to the recreational activities that visitors can enjoy.

However, Playa de los Bajos is somewhat lacking in amenities. There are no facilities such as toilets, showers, or footbaths, and the beach does not offer sunbed or umbrella rentals. There are also no designated sports or recreational areas for children. Nevertheless, waste disposal is facilitated with the provision of bins.

Access to Playa de los Bajos is straightforward, with visitors able to reach the beach by foot or car. However, parking is not available directly at the beach. An interurban bus service does stop nearby, providing an additional mode of transportation. For emergencies, the nearest hospital, Hospital de Torrecárdenas, is located 18 kilometers away.

The beach is also known for its relaxed atmosphere and ample space, even during peak seasons. As one walks further along the promenade, the beach becomes less crowded, offering a peaceful environment for those seeking solitude. While not officially designated as a dog-friendly beach, it is informally known to welcome dogs, making it a favorite spot for dog owners.
