Tenerife, the gem of the island chain
When imagining Tenerife, one might immediately picture beachside resorts and crowded tourist spots. Nevertheless, the island boasts untamed natural landscapes and historical downtowns, dominated by Mount Teide, which rises as both the tallest volcano and summit in Spain.
Spain
is brimming with unexpected delights. As famous as its neighboring islands, Lanzarote and Fuertventura, Tenerife offers breathtaking landscapes and idyllic shores. No matter your preference—be it pristine white sandy beaches or distinctive black sandy ones—this piece aims to guide you toward finding the ideal seaside retreat during your vacation in Tenerife.
Abama beach
This beach is truly a hidden treasure, quiet and secluded. Situated in the municipality of Guía de Isora, Abama Beach resembles a small inlet. The golden sands and crystal-clear waters create an ideal spot for sunbathing. Surrounded by steep cliffs and lush banana plants, it offers a distinctive and utterly exotic atmosphere whether you visit during the day or stop by briefly for dinner at the shore. You can relish the serene ambiance regardless of your duration of stay. Additionally, we suggest lingering until dusk to witness a stunning sunset.
In order to reach the beach, you should park your vehicle in the designated parking area located on an upper level. From there, just proceed along the pathway which leads downstairs towards Abama beach. Additionally, there’s a beachside eatery where you can savor a drink or dine on some delicious food whilst admiring the breathtaking scenery.
El Bollullo beach
If you’re seeking a new vista, El Bollullo beach is an excellent choice! Out of the many white and golden sands you might be familiar with, this beach distinguishes itself with its strikingly dark volcanic black sand.
Stunning rock formations jut out from the sea, enhancing the allure of this beach which ranks among the most picturesque on the northern coast of Tenerife Island. This tranquil spot remains untouched by typical tourist crowds, making Bollullo perfect for unwinding; it’s not yet widely discovered by visitors.
La Tejita beach
Near by the
Special Mountain Red Reserve Nature Park
Situated near the town of Los Abrigos lies the stunning La Tejita beach. This tranquil oasis is renowned for its untouched beauty and its distinctive golden, almost pink sands, set against the dramatic scenery of an ancient volcanic crater that gives the place its name.
The beach is quite spacious and can easily be reached via public transportation or by vehicle. This location is perfect for family walks. However, exercise caution while swimming due to strong waves and gusty winds.
Castro beach
If you love hidden coves, Castro Beach should be your go-to spot! Encircled by stunning natural scenery and bordered by volcanic formations that lend the shoreline its striking obsidian hue, this beach stands out uniquely.
To reach the destination, you will require excellent walking footwear due to its untamed character making it rather difficult to access. Additionally, there is a hiking path named Rambla de Castro, allowing exploration of the vicinity through Los Roques beach up until the peak at Hacienda de Castro. Following this hike, you can leisurely soak in the scenery from beneath by unwinding on the beautiful Castro beach.
