Playa de Janubio is a great place to explore, with its volcanic black sand and rocky areas. The tides are quite strong, making it a perfect spot for a stroll. It should be noted that this is a clothing-optional beach, which may or may not be an issue for some visitors. Despite being a nature conservation site, there weren't many birds around.

The beach has a pleasant atmosphere, and its sand is of volcanic origin.

Taking a stroll along the beach was enjoyable, though it wasn't the best spot for swimming or soaking up the sun.

A beautiful spot worth spending some time exploring! The salt fields are stunning and the light changes throughout the day, making it a truly magical experience. Plus, it's easily accessible, so it's a great spot for a day trip.
