About El Puntalillo
El Puntalillo is a small urban beach right next to Rota's historic old town. Its sheltered position means algae typically accumulate less than on La Costilla, making it a good alternative during heavy seaweed periods. The beach is compact but well-maintained, with the town's bars and restaurants just steps away.
