Latest reviews on Esquinzo's beaches

Playa del Matorral
8 José Belmonte

This spot was great! The water was crystal clear, and for 10€ a day you can rent sun beds and a parasol, though we didn't need it so I can't comment on the quality of the service. The only downside was the strong winds and the chilly water temperature, which was a bit of a bummer since we visited between mid-August and early September. All in all, this was one of the nicest beaches we visited in Fuerteventura.

Gaviotas Beach

This beach is one of the best in the area, although some older individuals seem to feel the need to sunbathe in the nude, which can be a bit uncomfortable.

Esquinzo-Butihondo Beach
8 Tommaso Parrino

That place is a great spot for a peaceful stroll or to just relax. It is nine kilometers long and has crystal clear waters. The wind can be a bit strong in some areas, but there are also areas where it is almost nonexistent. Definitely worth a visit.

Playa Del Mal Nombre
8 Santiago Lopez

That place in Fuerteventura is a great spot for a relaxing day. It's not the most popular beach around, but it's definitely worth a visit. perfect for those looking to enjoy some peace and quiet, as it's not usually crowded. Plus, if you're looking for a nude beach, this is a great option. All in all, it's an ideal spot to spend a hot day and relax.
