What a beautiful beach! The water is so peaceful, and it's perfect for catching some waves. Surfing is a blast here - you can really enjoy yourself.

The beach was far from impressive. The sand was coarse and the water was murky. The view was unappealing and the atmosphere was dull. There wasn't much to do and the amenities were lacking. All in all, it was a rather unpleasant experience.

A great option instead of the beach at Arinaga, just a few steps or a quick drive away. Pebbly beach with lots of alcoves made from the pebbles, so you can relax out of the wind. Very popular with windsurfers.
