Description.

North of the village of El Cotillo, about 3 kilometres, is the lighthouse of El Cotillo, where the Museum of Traditional Fisheries. (In the village there are road signs to get to Faro).
On this coast and west, we see a series of interconnected beaches, very well protected from the waves, which form natural lakes perfect for swimming.
First find a small natural lagoon, and then we come to the "Great Lake" which is a natural pool of clear water and white sand perfect for families.

Then there is another good-sized lake, which is common to find the Windsurfing novice practitioners, as some schools this sport come here to practice with beginners thanks to its excellent security.
Later, following a path of white sand bordered the coast and we are finding all small beaches perfect for swimming and diving.
Following this path of sand to reach the town of Majanicho, but it is advisable to make this journey in a 4x4 car.
There is no such services, so you have to bring food and water if you are going to spend the day in this paradise.

My Opinion:

One of my favourite beaches, as they are not all crowded (all year), the water is clear, the sand is white and there are a lot of marine life.
February-April in this area is completely deserted, so you can enjoy yourself in a paradise beach.
