Shaded parking, overnight ban

I was there on July 24 and was fined now in December for parking here. The worst thing is that the fine includes a photo of the van driving along the access path, where there is indeed a sign and where I did not park, but there is no photo or sign of the place where I actually parked, which is here. Terrible.

Signs prohibit parking from midnight to 8 a.m. We did not dare spend the night, although a few vans were still there. The beach bar below is spectacular, a great place to spend time and enjoy live music.

The day we were all afraid of has arrived... They have put up signs prohibiting parking from midnight to 8 a.m.

Careful!! ⚠️ They have installed cameras at the entrance to the paved track. We did not see any signs, but the locals are talking and an article in the newspaper says they will start fining vehicles spending the night around Secada. I have been coming here for years, have always looked after the area, and of course we enjoy the three beach bars below. This persecution is very sad.

This place is a marvel to me. Flat ground, in the middle of the forest and 100 meters from the beach. To top it off, there is a beach bar with spectacular live music. Fantastic place. We spent a dreamlike night.

Spacious and quiet, close to the beach. No services at all.

It may work for small and medium-sized vans such as L2H2, but not for motorhomes, since the road is narrow and has a deep ditch. With cars parked at the edge of the road, things become complicated, as I witnessed in one case. Otherwise fine in March.

In the low season, as was the case for us, an excellent place for those who do not mind being completely isolated. Flat grassy ground and lots of peace. Right next to a beautiful forest and lovely beach.

Low-traffic area, a few meters from the beach. Level.

Flat, dark, and quiet place. Very close to the PataPalo beach bar.

Parking with shade from the trees in the afternoon. There are containers, but people leave rubbish on the ground. Very, very crowded in August; it is impossible to park, and once parked it is impossible to leave, as a central parking area forms with two rows of cars. Vehicle access to the beach bars and rubbish collection is often blocked, creating total stress that is also noticeable on the beach.

Good parking, although on weekends there are drinking parties and clandestine celebrations attended by rather uncivilized people.

Very quiet area with the beach less than 2 minutes away. It is quite full on public holidays. Highly recommended to have a drink at PataPalo Beach Bar and take a walk along the coast.

Quiet area, a 3-minute walk from the beach. Flat, so no leveling blocks are needed.
