Cala misteriosa (Santa Cruz de Tenerife) is located outside the San Juan de Puntallana settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the coast of the La Palma, but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone.

This secluded beach is a real hidden gem. Access isn't easy, but it's worth the effort. Parking is limited, but it's worth the visit to spend the day here.

Just a short drive from Santa Cruz de la Palma lies an idyllic beach with minimal crowds and all the amenities - showers, barbecues, and a roof. It's a great spot for snorkeling, too! Plus, it's even got signs to make getting there a breeze. And if you're looking for some shade, the beach is sheltered and you can always find a spot to stay out of the sun. Highly recommended!

8 Very good

This secluded beach is the perfect spot for a quick dip and a picnic. Recently upgraded with a shower and steps for easy access, it's a great spot for those looking for a peaceful and private getaway. Unfortunately, the picnic area is quite small and there are no tables or chairs available. It also isn't suitable for those with reduced mobility, and there are only three parking spaces in the area. The road leading to the beach is quite narrow, so it's best to take a car carefully.

The ocean was bold and brave, making this beach a stunning sight. However, the tumultuous waters also make it a dangerous place to swim.
