Fantastic experience: We love this beach, every time we go we recharge our energy, easy access by bus, take line 122 and it drops you off close to the beach. There are many places to park. In summer, it's a good option, don't miss it.
Fantastic experience: The beach is very beautiful. A sunbed costs (as of 01/2024) €2.50. A sunshade costs the same. So, 2 sunbeds + umbrella is €7.50. Everything is very clean and well-maintained. The showers all work. The way into the sea is shallow and there are only a few medium-sized stones in the sand, which can be easily seen.
Positive experience: Esta limpia, y accesible.
Positive experience: No fácil acceso. Mucha piedra. Las duchas con poca agua. Ambiente tranquilo.
Fantastic experience: Con una buena y agradable costa, del cual puedes pasear o hacer ejercicio, podrás disfrutar de un buen baño en el mar, recuerda que tienen piedras y no es pura arena, un poco difícil aparcar pero se consigue aunque no se frente a tu destino. Y sí vas con perros, no olvides limpiar sus necesidades ya veo a muchos que se hacen los locos.

Positive experience: Bonito paseo y vistas. Yo no las llamaría playas porque no tienes casi servicios y están llenas de piedras gigantescas. Es más bien costa donde te puedes dar un chapuzón con escarpines. El pueblo está estancado en el pasado, no tiene muchas tiendas o servicios cerca de las playas. Lo que menos nos gustó es que hay caca de perros y pipi por todas las calles de la zona, el olor es horrible!!! Nos pareció un pueblo bastante sucio en ese sentido.
Positive experience: Excelente, hay hasta una playa para perros
Fantastic experience: Un bonito paseo, con playa de arena bolcanica y una temperatura la mayor parte del año #unica. Disfrútenla.

Positive experience: Black sand beach, really cool
Fantastic experience: Wonderful quiet beach, beware the sand burns a lot and I recommend water shoes.
Positive experience: The sand is of low quality and dirty. The facilities need improvement. Although we must highlight that there is a container for recycling and we liked that a lot.
Fantastic experience: Pebble beach but it's always a good idea to go if you wear water shoes. It is located in open sea and there is a walkway surrounding it with local restaurants where you can find homemade Canarian food, like the restaurant Unai, one of my favorites.
Fantastic experience: Nice place although there is little sand and many stones. You have to enter with beach shoes.

Positive experience: A lovely promenade runs from Candelaria. It’s a little run down towards the end, but there seems to be a very nice looking Italian restaurant which might make it worth the walk. Meanwhile the beach and water looks very inviting!

Fantastic experience: Nice beach nearby Candelaria; full of lively cafeterias and restaurants!!!
Positive experience: Playa de arena y piedra negra, con servicios de hamacas y baños. Es complicado aparcar a ciertas horas, Tiene el paseo marítimo con bares y restaurantes para comer y degustar bebidas.
Negative experience: Recuerdo esta playa antes de que la reformarán y si bien se mejoraron algunos aspectos nunca a brillado con todo su potencial. Las duchas funcionan y eso siempre es de agradecer. La parte de solarium está muy bien. Hay un quiosco, aunque personalmente prefiero oír el sonido del mar que la música a tope de turno. Es una pena que nunca se hayan podido usar las escaleras del rompeolas, en Radazul si se puede y es una gozada. El charco es ideal para los niños porque no hay olas, pero les recomiendo llevar escarpines porque es una playa de callados (piedras) no es una playa de arena, por lo que el baño a veces es incómodo. La gran ventaja es que se encuentra a dos pasos de los bares y restaurantes de la avenida marítima.
