It is difficult to think of any entertainment and activities when you are on the beach. To swim, to sunbathe, to drink a couple of cocktails, again to swim and again to sunbathe, the variety usually is very limited. But on Playa de Puerto de La Estaca you can test yourself in such an activity as water jumping. It's fun and it's scary, the rest you have to experience on your own.

In most cases, the question What to do on Playa de Puerto de La Estaca implies the presence of any excursions or attractions near the beach. Of course in this area there are lots of places to go besides the beach. There are historical, entertainment and even gastronomic tours offered by local guides. More information is better to clarify directly on the spot.

Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Playa de Puerto de La Estaca (Santa Cruz de Tenerife) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Playa de Puerto de La Estaca for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing.
