Playa el Morche – El Morche

El Morche forms part of the municipality of Torrox and is at the western end of Torrox Costa. The beach, which flies the prestigious EU Blue Flag, is fine sand, about 1200 metres long and, on average, about 40 metres wide. Very popular in the summer months. There is a paved promenade, which runs parallel to the N-340, and there are several beach bars to grab a drink and a bite to eat. The westernmost end is known as ‘El Cenicero’ as it was where the inshore fishermen used to carry out their repair work. Amazing really, as El Cenicero translates as The Ashtray. Local fishermen still use the beach to park their boats, winching them up the sand. There are beach bars and other eateries along the promenade, with the town itself only a stone’s throw away where there is quite a wide choice.
