Is El Tarajal a good beach for children?

Does El Tarajal have a Blue Flag?

No. El Tarajal is not listed with a Blue Flag in the MITECO data. The nearest Blue Flag beach is El Chorrillo (Ceuta), 2 km away in a straight line. Not having one does not make El Tarajal worse: the award certifies services and water quality, not scenery.
