This location is quite nice, but the locals seem to have an unfriendly attitude towards tourists, which is a shame.

Playa de Laga is stunning, and it's almost deserted due to the frigid water temperature. However, it's easy to access, making it a great option for those looking for a peaceful spot to relax.

If you're accustomed to Mediterranean beaches, this beach offers a unique experience. On sunny days, it's quite popular, but the sunsets are simply stunning. Unfortunately, there are no camping sites close by, but the beach does have basic amenities.

The beach was an absolute dream! I parked further up the road and walked down, and it was easy to access - no hassle at all. It was the perfect spot to spend the hot day, and I couldn't have asked for more.
