The bay of El Ancla Beach is also known as the Kings’ Beach due to its proximity to the Kings’ residence.

This property was given as a gift to the King of Spain from King Hussein of Jordan and is now known as a national world heritage.

Its main downfall comes from the fact that it is fairly short in length and that it is frequently visited by residents on the island.

In the early hours of the day it is the perfect location.

The few people that you meet at this time are taking the opportunity to walk along the admirable seas shore.
