Fantastic experience: Don't go, the stairs are very dangerous and I can't even tell you about the rocks. When you see it, you will understand why I don't want it to become more popular and why I want that wonder of Cádiz to always remain natural.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach with difficult steep access but it's worth visiting.
Fantastic experience: Great little coves to enjoy the Cadiz coast. A staircase provides access to the five or six coves that are from La Barrosa beach to the Roche lighthouse. All are nudist and textile.
Positive experience: Everything is very nice, access on foot is a bit difficult.
Fantastic experience: It consists of six coves that you can pass from one to another when the tide is low, recommended when there is an easterly wind. The cove closest to the lighthouse is nudist, the next one is mixed, and the rest are textile. None of them are to be missed; I recommend visiting them all. It is easy to park if you go early.

Negative experience: Hay un cartel como una casa de grande que pone prohibido perros y animales domésticos
Negative experience: Vinimos porque pone que se permiten perros en Google pero no es asi en el acceso pone prohibido perros en la playa, pues no lo entiendo ensucian menos que los humanos
Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach, dog-friendly
Positive experience: Está muy bien. Hay dos escaleras que bajan a la playa pero una de ellas Está muy deteriorada y hay hasta agujeros por algunos lados y como no te des cuenta te caes. Estaría bien que la arreglen pero igualmente hay otra escalera un poco más alejada de esa en perfecto estado y segura.
Fantastic experience: Accedimos a través de la urbanización y que maravilla. Que pena a partir de mitad de junio no se pueda acceder con perros nuestro chico disfruto mucho hoy !

Positive experience: Playa salvaje pero de arena bastante gruesa, difícil aparcar y más complicado comer
Negative experience: Ideal para que la policía te denuncie por tener animales en zona nudista, pero para nadar entre tampax,compresas , condones, colillas etc si, ideal si quieres ir con niños y ver gente practicando sexo porque todo eso sí se permite pero ir con tus animales atados y recogiendo sus excrementos te dicen que te multan con 100€ por animal si te vuelven a ver....de vergüenza el ayuntamiento debería cambiar muchas cosas empezando por la educación y el trato a la gente de fuera que viene a dejar dinero a su tierra. Se acabó venir más
Fantastic experience: Tolle kleinere Sandstrände, die von Felsen eingerahmt sind.
Fantastic experience: Roche Cove in Cádiz is an ideal place for those looking for a quiet beach without crowds. Surrounded by cliffs and featuring fine golden sand, this cove offers a very well-preserved natural environment. The most notable aspect is the clarity of its waters, which are perfect for a relaxing swim or practicing snorkeling, thanks to its moderate waves. Additionally, its relatively small size and location make it less crowded than other nearby beaches, allowing for a calmer atmosphere. Being in a little urbanized area, Roche Cove maintains a natural air that makes it very appealing for those who prefer to avoid more touristy beaches. The sunsets here are particularly beautiful, with clear views and not too many visual distractions. Without a doubt, a recommended place for those visiting Cádiz and seeking a quieter spot on the coast.
Fantastic experience: Very beautiful beach with clear water and white sand. Importantly sheltered from the easterly winds. Access is via some stairs, there are no services of any kind. At low tide, you can access various rocky coves that provide some natural shade.

Fantastic experience: One of the most beautiful coves in Conil, located in the Roche area next to the Ilunion hotel. It has good access through stairs, and it is well-equipped. There are no beach bars or other services, it is quite pristine. The locals from the village usually go to these coves on days when there is Levante, as the wind is less intense. Recommended, you will like it.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful cove, natural without beach bars, we loved it.
Fantastic experience: It's always worth going, but when the easterly wind is blowing, it's a perfect place to spend the day, a natural and protected area. If you feel like having something to drink, you need to bring provisions in a cooler because there are no beach bars; you have to go down a staircase, but it's phenomenal.
Fantastic experience: Located in Conil. There is access to the coves via stairs, while others can be accessed from the shore at low tide. The landscape and environment are spectacular.

Fantastic experience: Cal pequeña pero muy bien cuidada, solo le falta socorrista, imagino que puede ser por tamañno
Negative experience: Paya tranquilas, aunque demasiado aforo para los tiempos que corren, demasiados descelebrados, que hacen caso omiso a las medidas de seguridad. Demasiados porros !!
Fantastic experience: Preciosa cala para pasar el día en la playa y ver el atardecer, se respeta la distancia de seguridad. Si hace un día de viento es mejor ir a una de estas calas, porque en las playas se levanta más la arena. Si vais de visita por Conil, os recomiendo que la visitéis☀️
Fantastic experience: Un sitio paradisíaco con unas aguas fabulosas. La gente super concienciada con la situación y controlando la distancia de seguridad.
Positive experience: Bonita cala. Puntualizar que unas duchas estarían genial y un socorrista también.

Fantastic experience: Precioso y gran lugar para el paddle surf
Fantastic experience: Playa ideal para surf, body surf o un simple baño. Hay que tener cuidado si te bañas cerca de los surfistas. A mejorar, poner más duchas y lava pies: las medidas anticovid deben ser ampliar las duchas disponibles y no cerrar las pocas que hay. Idílicas puestas de sol. Casi tan bonita como la de su vecina playa de La Barrosa.
Fantastic experience: Plage de sable magnifique, et tres grande. Une plage ou l'on peut surfer également, avec des cours.

Positive experience: Una playa súper bonita, el agua muy limpia. Deberíamos cuidarla un poco más, ya que la gente suele dejar colillas, pipas, botellines...en la arena .

Fantastic experience: Me encanta esta playa-cala. Esta recogidita, la arena no es fina pero asi no se pega tanto El entorno precioso, perfecto para cuando hay aire de levante(resguarda) No se aparca mal del todo. Rocas para snorkel. Cuando baja la marea puedes pasar andando al retso de calas. Preciosa como casi todo en Cádiz

Fantastic experience: One of the best coves in Cádiz, in Roche.

Fantastic experience: Spectacular... As always.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful cove, you have to go early, it gets crowded.
Positive experience: We arrived at 11:00 AM and parked without any problem. Starting at 12:00 PM, the cove began to fill up and people were placing themselves very close together. It is a very beautiful cove but too crowded.
Positive experience: Everything is very nice, access on foot is a bit difficult.
Fantastic experience: It has a charm that not everyone knows how to appreciate. As wild as it is familiar. Don't expect a comfortable beach. That is its soul, untamed.
Positive experience: We loved this beach, but it lacks showers.

Fantastic experience: Perfect coves for beach days and the sea's uplifting color, easy access
Fantastic experience: Excellent calm and relaxed place. Some coves are nudist.

Fantastic experience: One of the best beaches in Spain...everything is within reach
Fantastic experience: Beautiful cove located in the Roche area! It has access via stairs. It's a very difficult area to park and is usually very crowded due to its fame. The sunsets there are spectacular!! The Iluniom hotel is right on this cove; if you are looking for a good area, it's the ideal hotel. Just before reaching the access to the cove, there are tree adventures that are highly recommended for children. When we went for the first time, we thought it was a private passage, but it is public!
Fantastic experience: Stunning beach! Just outside of Roche and no one there! Great day trip spot to get out of the bustle of Cádiz!
Fantastic experience: Beautiful cove. And in October it's quieter. It's a real luxury.
Positive experience: Beautiful beach, wild, wide open spaces. Not crowded at the end of September, ideal for both families and groups of friends.
Fantastic experience: Very special place, specifically the sunset.
Fantastic experience: Dreamlike. It has become my favorite beach by far.
Fantastic experience: Roche Beach has become one of my favorites, if not my favorite. Family-friendly beach, quieter and spacious without being huge, very comfortable. It has spectacular sunsets and it's not difficult to park. It's not overcrowded, which is appreciated. It has nothing to envy from other beaches.
Fantastic experience: Very beautiful beach with clear water and white sand. Importantly sheltered from the easterly winds. Access is via some stairs, there are no services of any kind. At low tide, you can access various rocky coves that provide some natural shade.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely stunning beach with wonderful waves and a beautiful sunset
Fantastic experience: Superb place.... The rocks and all the coves are amazing
Fantastic experience: One of the few coves in the area. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Impressive cove .... a must-visit place
Fantastic experience: Spectacular beach, especially for days with an easterly wind.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful cove, natural without beach bars, we loved it.
Positive experience: Small beach where there is little parking. It is not accessible for disabled people.

If you feel like having something to drink, you need to bring provisions in a cooler because there are no beach bars; you have to go down a staircase, but it's phenomenal.
Fantastic experience: Excellent quality. Easy access.
Fantastic experience: Awesome beach with some rock formations on one end. Got lucky with some semi big waves when we visited. Only negative was all the trash and toilet paper people left behind behind some of the bigger rocks which should probably be cleaned up at some point. Other than that its a roomy beach and is very clean with multiple ways of accessing it.
Positive experience: Very beautiful beach, but very difficult access. A long dirt road (half a dangerous cliff). And when you finally settle on the beach, you have to leave because the tide rises and takes up half the beach. Additionally, there is an immense amount of people (August). Although the beach itself is worth it.
Fantastic experience: This cove is wonderful. A place full of magic and charm.
Fantastic experience: It's very comfortable. It's very big, so there are no issues with space.
Fantastic experience: Located in Conil. There is access to the coves via stairs, while others can be accessed from the shore at low tide. The landscape and environment are spectacular. There is no beach bar, so it is important to bring food and drinks. The surroundings provide protection from the wind.

Fantastic experience: Happiness is a day at the Beach!
Fantastic experience: Great mix of textiles / naturists. You can do whatever you want
Fantastic experience: Love the sand, love the water, really enjoyed our day there and the restaurant we had lunch at was superb!!
Fantastic experience: My favourite beach in the region so far, will little development (therefore don't expect showers and chiringuitos here). It is a small cove so when the wind is strong it is not that bad. Just be careful with the rocks below the water, and enjoy this place, leaving nothing behind except your footprints!
Fantastic experience: Oh my god! Why no one really suggests this place and they keep suggesting Zahara de los atunes or Bolonia. Easy to get to! We arrived earlish like 12 and parking was easy. Then amazing small hiking trail through the park and a lot of calas one after the other and beautiful stone stairs to go down to whichever you prefer! We went to Cala del Pato! Just beautiful water, not crazy busy. And also there were 3 different people passing by with trolleys with refreshments and sweets! Would totally go again and explore more.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful beach in a very nice area. If you like to fight with waves it's the perfect place to go.
