Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Playa del Camello (Tenerife) 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 Camello (Tenerife) 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 Camello 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.

Playa del Camello is a great place to visit, but unfortunately it is currently closed due to landslides.

The beach looked very pretty from afar, but unfortunately it was closed. However, it does have the benefit of having free public entry.

That place is truly remarkable; even in high season, it remains largely deserted. It can't be accessed on foot, but the view from the viewpoint is nothing short of incredible.

I absolutely adore this tranquil spot. It's a great place to get away from it all, and the best part is that it's free to access for the public. No one will disturb you here - it's perfect!
