Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Playa del Burro (La Palma) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Playa del Burro (La Palma) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Playa del Burro for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.

The beach was a sight to behold with the Kitesurf exhibition and the waves that day were remarkable. However, I gave it 3 stars as I found it not to be suitable for swimming.

This secluded beach is the perfect spot for those who want to get away from it all. With only a few people around, it's the ideal place to relax and take in the beauty of the Canary Islands. It's the perfect hideaway for dropouts who want to escape the hustle and bustle of the city.

The beach was a miserable sight; we had a terrible time during our visit. The shore was unappealing and the atmosphere was far from enjoyable. All in all, it was a forgettable experience.
