Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Playa del Medio (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 Medio (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 Medio 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.

This spot is very good for water sport beginners like myself as the water is flat contrary to playa del Médano. The disadvantages are the large pebbles!

Good place to have one night sleep, a lot of van places. But loud airplanes and bad smell.

One more windsurf and wingsurg spot in Tenerife South!

CHRISTIAN COMPAGNONI

Peace, yes. But it is hampered by the industrial environment. Wind farms first and foremost. The surfing is there. The same level for windsurfing. It's really peaceful there and there is also a place for camping. Obviously without infrastructure or comfort.

It is a beach that is ideal for those who like the beaches of Callao and there are not many people. I love it.
