Beach overall scores
Playa de los Muertos (Almeria) region (Almería Coast sub-region) is located outside the Carboneras 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, 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.
User reviews
"Don't bother making the trek to this beach - it's not worth it. The climb is tough and the beach itself is nothing special. It's much better to stay at the beach in Ajuy."
Sabrina
"This beach near Carboneras is a must-see! 🏖 You won't regret making the effort to get there, even if it's a bit of a challenge for elderly or people with disabilities. It's got a few steps, rocks and some steep areas, but it's totally worth it!"
