Although most of ‘Verano azul’ was filmed in Nerja (Málaga), some scenes were filmed in Playa de la Herradura, such as the sequence in which the main characters arrive at the beach for the first time.

The Amazon Prime Video series about a family of arms dealers ‘Los Farad’ filmed some scenes on this beach, such as the sequence in which the main characters meet.

The final scenes of the feature film ‘The House of Snails’ by Macarena Astorga were also filmed in this area, specifically in the area of Cerro Gordo.
