Beach overall scores
Playa Nueva Umbria (Huelva) region (Costa de la Luz sub-region) is located outside the El Terron settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
The beach stretches on the sunny coast and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Playa Nueva Umbria with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.

"That place , located far away from the town, is a great spot for a peaceful walk and a day of soaking up the sun. It's an incredibly long beach with plenty of different areas to explore. There are also thousands of shells to be found, making it an ideal destination for anyone looking for a tranquil place to spend the day. Highly recommended!"

The nudist area is particularly tranquil and peaceful, making it the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the sun and ..."
