Popularly known as 'El Cruce' (The Crossroads), this beach lies between Los Enebrales and El Portil. It's not built up, although it has a few beach
cafés, and you get to it along a road running parallel to the sea which crosses the dunes and pine woods. It's very much frequented by residents
of the capital and metropolitan area because it's one of the closest beaches to the city. If you're not comfortable being amongst a throng of
people then it's best not to go at a weekend because it gets packed. The good thing about it is that, because Huelva's beaches are so wide, you
never find yourself towel-to-towel, and there's still enough sand for everyone. Something to bear in mind: please pay attention to the Red Cross'
flags which signal the condition of the sea, because in this area on occasions there are strong currents.
The sports commonly practised here are windsurfing, kite surfing and parascending.
