Playa de Isleta del Moro - Cabo de Gata beaches

Playa Isleta del Moro is a small beach next to the small jetty in the quaint fishing hamlet Isleta del Moro  known for its picturesque setting, and well worth the 500m detour from the AL-4200 San Jose to Las Negras coast road.

Limited parking is available in the main square, which is actually an old river course. You can get a drink or meal at La Isleta bar with terrace overlooking the jetty and the bay, which is dominated by the dual-peaked extinct volcanoes called Volcanes del Fraile. 

if Playa Isleta de Moro is too small or crowded in the summer, there is a  larger beach called Playa de Peñon Blanco. This is, a 400m-curve of sand, located just to the north east of the village and you can easily park just behind.
