Playa de La Araña
Playa de La Araña is a beach in the East district of Malaga, Andalusia.

Its dimensions are about 400 m long and 25 m wide on average. It is a very busy beach and almost without facilities or services. For today, this combination is important: it can be practical due to its position, but do not count on many confirmed amenities. Peñón del Cuervo is 0.9 km away, El Candado at 1.7 km, El Palo at 3.2 km, and Pedregalejo at 4.5 km.
