- Directions Medio Almud beach is between Puerto Rico and Puerto de Mogán and is easy to get to by bus or car. Driving from Puerto Rico, look out for the signpost just after the first tunnel after Tauro. Although there is a road running right down to the beach, you will need to park in a small car park on the main street. The barrier there tends to be closed, so you have to continue on foot.The walk takes about ten minutes and the last few meters are a bit tricky. This is because the road becomes a steeply sloping gravel track. Blue bus lines 31 and 33 stop at Medio Almud bus stop.
