This image captures a bright, sunny day at Playa de Mataleñas, a beach located on the northern coast of Santander, Spain. The scene is viewed from an elevated perspective, looking down onto the cove. The foreground is partially obscured by green fern foliage. The midground features a sandy beach where waves, varying from turquoise to light blue, break and recede. Approximately 50 to 70 individuals are present on the beach and in the water. Many are seen swimming or wading in the surf, while others walk or stand on the wet and dry sand. To the left, a prominent rocky coastline with steep, light-colored cliffs extends into the ocean. Distinct rock formations, including one resembling a mushroom cap, are visible at the base of the cliffs where waves crash. The ocean beyond the immediate cove transitions to a deeper blue. In the distant sea, a white-sailed sailboat is visible, accompanied by a smaller, fainter sailboat further away. High in the clear, light blue sky, a small, distinct purple object, possibly a paraglider, is present.
