Playa de Mataleñas
Playa de Mataleñas is a named coastal option in Spain, not an automatic “best beach” answer. Choose it only after comparing live water temperature, wind, wave exposure, currents, UV and official notices. The page’s answer remains traceable because durable context and rapidly changing observations are not mixed together. What do the stable sources establish? Surface information in the mapped record is sand. Wikipedia’s place entry opens with “La playa de Mataleñas está ubicada en Cueto en el municipio de…” The recorded map position is 43.48601, -3.78787, which helps distinguish this beach from similarly named places. For a plan B, review Segunda Playa de El Sardinero at about 1 km, Primera Playa de El Sardinero at about 1.5 km and Playa de La Concha at about 1.6 km, all listed in the nearby-beach data for this location. How should you decide on the day? Current planning should focus on how to reach the entry point without assuming parking. Keep those live variables separate from the stable place description. Keep one alternative open and treat flags, closures and instructions from local safety staff as the final decision source. Choose a comparison radius that fits the real travel window. A better-protected beach is not useful if the route makes the conditions update obsolete. A conditions screenshot ages quickly. Reopen the live page before departure instead of relying on an image or recommendation saved earlier in the day. Check whether everyone in the group can use the documented access. Surface, gradient and the last few metres often matter more than the map pin.
