Subjects : Faraglioni and cliffs, especially in the western part, accessible directly from the beach during low tide. You can also continue along the path that runs along the beach, pass it and get to the top of the eastern side of the cliff, from which you can enjoy an excellent view of the surrounding ocean landscape and the stacks scattered along the coast. It is also possible to photograph many goats that, during the summer, live in the wild and graze directly on the rock wall. They are not spectacular animals, but their effective acrobatics are still remarkable.

Recommended equipment : Wide angle for wider shots, especially on the beach, from which you can approach the striking cliffs on the west side. A telephoto lens can also work to capture details of the landscape, especially on the path overlooking the beach. Those who want can also shoot with ND1000 or ND 500 filters (and therefore a tripod), as the movement of the ocean waves gives excellent results even for this type of photography.

Best months : Any period can go (I was there only at the end of July), as long as there is no high tide. In that case the beach is inaccessible, you can still shoot from various viewpoints along the path.

How to get there : You have to get to the village of Castañeras, from there you continue northwest; The signs to the beach, however, are very clear and widespread. As soon as you open the countryside, on the left there is a large field where you can leave your car and walk for 15 minutes; Parking is guarded and costs 3€ for the whole day. For those who have a good sturdy car, I still recommend continuing along the road - which becomes a bit more "bumpy" - and parking along the different recesses, closer to the beach.

Visits : Free admission, the only paid service is a guarded parking that costs € 3 per day.
