Beaches nearby

For the nearest zones it is noted where the same discharge lies nearby and where the register already holds a bathing ban. Whether a discharge reaches a stretch of coast depends on current and rainfall:

Playa de las Vistas 791 Meter same discharge at 670 Meter
Playa de los Cristianos 1.4 Kilometer same discharge at 1.2 Kilometer
Playa de Troya I (Américas I) 1.6 Kilometer same discharge at 1.9 Kilometer bathing ban in the register

The register also records a bathing ban at Playa del Bobo.
