La Higuerica Beach

EL COCÓN (Águilas)

Information

This beach is located in a natural setting, five kilometres within the famous Cuatro Calas (Four Coves). Like the other coves, this beach has a significant area covered by golden sand that gently leads into crystal-clear waters. Facing east, it is sheltered from the west wind and slightly less protected from the southwest wind. There is a sharp-edged, small rocky island, which fishers call "La Cama de los Novios" (The Bride and the Groom's bed), located opposite this beach.
