Playa de Melicena
Melicena Beach is a gravel beach located in the Spanish locality of Melicena, in the municipality of Sorvilán, province of Granada, Andalusia. No equipment or lifeguard services are indicated; the spot is recognized by its beach type, surface, and its anchoring in this sector of the Grenadine coast. The nearby beaches provide good landmarks for comparison: Playa de las Cañas, Playa de El Gaiterillo, and Playa Los Yesos are the closest, then Playa de La Mamola and Playa El Ruso appear a little further away. For an outing, this place is worth noting if you are looking for a gravel shoreline in a coastal village rather than a large urban sandy beach.
About this spot
Melicena is chosen with the idea of a simple shoreline, on gravel, in the province of Granada. If you prefer to multiply options before settling down, also look at Las Cañas and El Gaiterillo, both indicated in the immediate vicinity.
