Declared a Natural Monument, a long sandy area where the tide hides some landscape treasures that we can only enjoy when it goes down. Arches over thirty meters high reminiscent of the flying buttresses of a cathedral, caves tens of meters long, corridors of sand between blocks of rock. The result of the ancient forces of the sea and the wind, in the best of its versions.
