For anyone interested in the north beach, we've just returned home after 2 weeks in Arillas and access to the beach was easy. Most days there was no wading whatsoever and the beach was quite wide, especially where the sun beds are (not to everyone's liking I know but we like a bit of "comfort").
On a couple of occasions the sea did come up close but there was still no need to wade, you only got your feet wet.
Just before the naturist section an area has been cordonned off where there has been a rock fall. It looks like it won't be too long before there is another one judging by the cracks.
I know the beach can quickly change according to the weather but thought anyone about to go to Arillas and who likes the north end might be interested.
