Fantastic experience: Beautiful sandy beach with lots of space. The sunset over the sea is amazing!
Positive experience: Nice place but there are no showers or a small stream of water to clean your feet since it is sandy.
Fantastic experience: Das Wasser ist Nass die Wellen sind hoch der Sand ist sandig und die Steine sind steinig. Alles was ein guter Strand benötigt. Auf den Sand in meiner Hose nach den Wellen hätte ich verzichten können aber bei solchen Atemberaubenden Sonnenuntergängen ist der schnell vergessen. Kann man nur empfehlen!
Positive experience: Sehr schöner und ruhiger Strand, auch kann man dort sehr schöne Sonnenuntergänge erleben und bei guter Sicht, sind sogar die Nachbarinseln El Hierro und La Palma zu sehen. Dennoch muss ich einen Stern abziehen, da dass Wasser zu salzig ist und den Mund austrocknet, wenn man zu viel davon trinkt. Auch der Sand ist nicht zu empfehlen, er bleibt sehr schnell überall kleben, alles in allem aber ganz nett hier

Fantastic experience: The best beach on the island

Fantastic experience: La Gomera is still a charming little paradise on the edge of Europe and one of our favorite destinations. Many people shy away from switching from the airplane to the ferry, making the journey itself a small adventure in our strictly organized world. We enjoy the largely untouched charm. Here we find peace and serenity. And when we hike up to the plateaus on the left and right of Valle Gran Rey, we are captured by that sublime feeling known only to hikers (or astronauts), they are a tiny dot in the midst of nature, and Earth is just a 'pale blue dot' at the edge of a universe. How beautiful awe can be. Pure Gomera feeling!
