El Roque - all beaches

This beach is one of the rare protected ones where swimming is allowed. It can get quite crowded, but I enjoyed strolling along the shore and grabbing some fish food at one of the terraces. Additionally, there is a microclimate in the area, which means the temperature is consistently 3 degrees higher compared to a location 5 kilometers away.

That place is a tranquil spot, but be warned - the 20 minute walk from the car park isn't for the faint-hearted. Driving in the dark is a no-no, and swimming can be a challenge depending on the wind and waves. Despite this, it's still a magical place worth visiting.

A stunning sight, the beach is graced with fine black sand and backed by a tall and steep cliff, which creates an archway that appears to hover over the beach. The waters are crystal clear and a deep blue, making it a truly lucky spot to visit.

The views at the beach were incredible and the waves were stunning.
