Although it may be small and simple, this beach boasts warm water and decent amenities. However, what really sets it apart is the nearby food stand.

The oceanic water, formed by Pico's lava, has created a stunning natural pool that is both beautiful and incredibly calming.

Although it boasts natural beauty, there isn't much to enjoy when the weather is cold, rainy, and windy.

I absolutely loved this beach! The scenery and water are breathtaking. The water is teeming with life, including some pretty big fish that are easily visible while snorkeling in the natural pool. Additionally, there's a small Imbiss that serves different lunch options and I highly recommend it - they even speak English!

The beach offers a picturesque view that's perfect for capturing great photos. On days with good weather, taking a quick dip in the water is a refreshing option. When it's windy, the waves hitting the shore make for stunning photo opportunities.
