This geographical particularity endows it with a unique landscape setting.

The natural surroundings of the beach are marked by terrain of granitic origin, where dense pine forests intertwine with extensive cultivated lands. Olive groves and vineyards predominate, contributing with their colours and textures to the rural beauty and authenticity of the environment that hosts this bathing area.
