The erosion of the beaches, due to weather and tides, is a permanent feature of coastal life and will remain so until the necessary breakwaters are installed. Part of the eastern end (Plaza Fabrica de los Cangrejos) of Torrecilla beach has disappeared and there is a shelf, but the remainder of the area is nice and flat.
El Chucho beach has been badly hit by the weather with much of the beach area gone and a huge shelf now being the main feature.
