Best Beaches


Puerto del Carmen is an ideal choice for those craving a beach break. The region boasts a multitude of glorious sandy coasts to choose from.

 

Playa Grande lives up to its name which means large beach. This expansive stretch of golden sands is an epitome of tranquillity. This beach is fringed by a vibrant promenade dotted with palm trees, providing a venue for numerous cafes, eateries, and pubs.

 

Playa de los Pocillos is a charming Blue Flag-accredited coast stretches over a kilometre, offering ample room to unwind on a sun lounger and relish a day basking in the sunlight. Its kid-friendly ambience, complete with a children’s play area, a miniature golf course, and several ice cream parlours, makes it a popular spot among families.

 

Despite being a tiny, hidden gem, Playa Chica never fails to entice both tourists and locals. With its golden sandy surface and secure swimming conditions, it's an ideal spot for a relaxing day by the sea. The marine-rich waters add to its allure, so don't forget to bring your snorkelling gear.
