The beach is not well kept, with numerous large stones scattered around. Swimming is difficult due to the presence of bothersome underwater obstacles, and there is a potential for accidents.

This is one of my favorite beaches on the entire island. It offers a great spot for swimming that is protected by a breakwater, and there is also a pier for jumping into the water. The Red Cross has a presence near the pier, so it feels safe to jump. Another great feature of this beach is the abundance of restaurants along the shoreline. However, be aware that the beach is pebbly and can be uncomfortable to walk on. I recommend wearing slippers or other protective footwear.

This beach in Tenerife is the worst I've ever been to. The water is murky and the beach itself is quite small. The only redeeming quality is that it's not crowded and quite empty.
