Playa de los Cocedores, also known as Cala Cerrada, is a small beach located between the municipality of Pulpí, in the province of Almería, and the municipality of Águilas, in the Region of Murcia. It belongs to the Murcia section of the Cuatro Calas protected natural area. It has a length of 150 meters and a semicircular shape. Its sand is fine and yellow, and its waters are calm because they are protected by a small, almost closed natural bay. The bottoms are sandy.

The beach is not exactly quiet, because it is embedded between the rocks, the water is calm, and in winter you can paddle and swim there.

Los Cocedores beach is considered one of the most peculiar and beautiful beaches in the Spanish litography. This is thanks to its landscape eroded by the sea, which has created curious caves. In ancient times, these caves were used as cooking places, hence their name, in English ‘cookers’. This, together with its calm, crystal-clear waters, makes it one of the most beautiful natural spots in Spain. Los Cocedores beach is located on the border between Murcia and Almería. In fact, there is a dispute between the two regions over who owns the beach. It is not surprising, as it is one of the most fascinating spots in the area and both want to have it in their geography. Thats why tere are TWO BARS at the beach, ons with the flag of Murcia and one with the flag of Andalusia.
