Getting to know the sea in Marbella
- Wind
Winds here have names: terral (off the land), levante (from the east) and poniente (from the west).
Each beach page uses these names when they blow, and they count in the verdict like any other wind. Each name links to its definition.
- Tide
In the Mediterranean the tide varies by only a few centimetres, so we do not mark high or low tide.
- Bathing water
Out of season: 1
