This village in Fuerteventura is not worth the effort. If you're looking for a place to stay, there are certainly better options available. okay, but nothing special. The village itself is unremarkable and there's not much to do. All in all, it's not worth the time and effort.

This location is a pretty and small paradise, with its tranquil atmosphere and black sand and stones. Best of all, it's open to the public and free to enter!

8 Very good

The dark sand here at this beach may not be everyone's cup of tea. Unfortunately, it's also littered with various bits of trash. Despite that, the atmosphere is tranquil. The promenade looks a bit worse for wear, and the abandoned hotel on the beach likely plays a part in that.

That place is a great place for some peace and quiet, with its rocky shoreline. There are plenty of shops and bars nearby, and best of all, the beach has public access, so you can enjoy it for free.
