Punta Paloma Dune
Duna de Punta Paloma
A large dune pushed by the levante easterly wind toward pine woods and the roadside. From the top you can overlook Valdevaqueros Bay and the African coast.
The dune lies at the western end of Valdevaqueros Beach and is about 30 meters high. The strong levante wind has pushed it inland year after year, even engulfing a road and trees. Climbing it gives a view over the bay and the kitesurfers, and on clear days you can see Morocco. Below the dune is Punta Paloma Beach, which has a natural mud bath spot. Entry is free. Take the N-340 and turn onto the track toward Punta Paloma, where parking is limited.
