Walking around in the dunes is a lot of fun! Great view of the beach and the town of Bolonia. Surrounded by the sand mountains you feel like you are in the desert.

One of the most beautiful natural places in Spain overlooking Africa.
The dune is mesmerizing.

The dune is, or more precisely the dunes are, very interesting and there is a lot to discover. There are various types of sand: loose (natural peeling free of charge), soft, firm and almost hard, fine and coarse, etc. There is also vegetation on the edge and sometimes on "islands" including trees, living or already dead...

Especially children, but of course adults too, can jump and hop here and still always land soft as butter.

If you are in the area. The sand dune at Bolonia is well worth a visit. You can either walk up from the beach or drive out of Bolonia. Park up and walk through the woods and onto the dune. What an incredible place.

Climbing the Bolonia dune is an experience of little difficulty that will allow us to contemplate a spectacular landscape from above.

Truly worth seeing! The climb may be strenuous, but you'll be rewarded with a magnificent view. Even in hazy weather, you can see all the way to Africa!
Definitely worth it 👍😊

The continuous progression of the dune landscape at Bolonia by the constant wind inevitably leads to the death of the adjacent pine trees, which are spilled.
