beach in Almería province, Spain
Spain · 36.7309, -2.1455
Mónsul Beach is named as a filming location in the Wikipedia articles of 4 productions, in the section each entry below links back to. No Wikidata filming statement points here yet, so this page says plainly which kind of evidence it rests on.
“Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park was used for the road, tunnel and beach sequence (at Playa de Mónsul) in which birds strike the plane.”
Filmed here, per Wikipedia
Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Mónsul Beach as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, and labelled as what it is, each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.
Named here by Mónsul Beach’s own Wikipedia article
Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Mónsul Beach, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.
