Negative experience: Buen lugar para ir en familia, pero en cambio el acceso a los marineros para varar sus embarcaciones por culpa de una rampa cada día más empinada hace esta profesión que sea una reliquia de museo por desgracia sin que se haga nada por la administración.
Positive experience: Beaucoup de vent... Stationnement un peu difficile, mais un beau site
Positive experience: Playa tranquila y accesible, con aparcamientos cerca. Evitar ir en días con mucho viento ya que se concentra allí y es imposible estar.
Fantastic experience: Un secreto bien guardado que usan los lugareños. Que pedazo de playa en el suroeste de Gran Canaria. Pegado al aeropuerto Vigilancia De la Cruz roja Con servicio para móvil reducida La playa tiene unos baños públicos súper limpios. Creo que es la primera vez que vero tanta limpieza en un baño público. El agua, normalmente tranquila por la rocas que apartan las olas Los chicos saltaban al Agua desde lo alto de varioD rocas . Súper limpia y con acceso para barcos con rampa. Playa de ambiente familiar llena de vida y fondos ricos en fauna. Ideal para snorkeling snorkel. Tiene unas tumbonas de madera donde poder extender las toallas. Me encanto y repetiré Piscina natural de piedra Cueva
Positive experience: La playa está muy bien. Con buenos accesos, balneario público, poca masificación y buen estado de limpieza. Lo único malo de la zona es el viento. La cosa está genial si vienes a hacer wind surf y esas cosas, pero con viento, la arena de la playa es bastante molesta. Sin viento (nunca lo he conseguido ver) es un playazo genial.

Positive experience: It still retains that mysterious charm of the Canary Islands. I saw it on a December day. The houses on the beach are old but with character. At that moment, the beach was not suitable for swimming; there were two guys surfing. Many people were walking with their dogs. I liked it.

Positive experience: En la playa puedes encontrar justo enfrente un restaurante y un club donde puedes alquilar tablas de surf , de padle surf , kayaks , canoas y piraguas.

Positive experience: Playa acogedora. Bonito paseo. Se come buen a un precio razonable en el restaurante club Marítimo.

Positive experience: Although it is a windy area, the sea looks beautiful. In addition, it is a very well-marked beach for bathers and surfers... from the beach you can go up to the viewpoint, which is relatively new and has some beautiful views, and further towards the airport there is another viewpoint at the runway where you can see the planes landing.

Fantastic experience: Preciosa️ y salvaje playa , con duchas y vestuarios con servicio, nada peligrosa y enmarcada en un pequeño pueblo marítimo de raíces pesqueras en el que encontraras todo tipo de servicios de restauración, supermercado,farmacia, floristería.. Un poco ventosa en verano️ pero se solventa poniendo la toalla en la cara norte de la playa, a partir de septiembre, un lago abierto al mar donde disfrutar y hacer snorkel, por ejemplo. Poco turística y alejada de masificaciones, ideal para pasar unos días tranquil@.

Positive experience: Beach with few people. However, there are a lot of nuisances from the passage of planes, as the airport is nearby. Furthermore, be careful with your feet as there are many rocks and pebbles.
Fantastic experience: Charming beach in the southeast of the island.
Fantastic experience: Very beautiful views
Positive experience: Very quiet beach, but almost always with a lot of wind and waves.
Fantastic experience: Wonderful experience. Clean, quiet. A place found for relaxation.
Fantastic experience: It's small but great, and above all clean.
Positive experience: I love breathing in the intense smell of pure sea.
Fantastic experience: Very good
Negative experience: It's a quiet beach with a minor vibe and few tourists, seemingly a place where local people go swimming. The town itself is also quite run-down, and I had a very plain impression of it, especially considering its location behind the airport. The beach, with a mix of sand and rocks, doesn’t look very clean at first glance, but the simple scenery with locals deep in conversation and children running around was charming. There were also many people fishing. There were two restaurants and a café in the village.
Positive experience: Good place for a swim. The wind is a bit annoying for sunbathing. And there's the possibility of shore fishing.
Fantastic experience: A relatively niche attraction, mostly locals come here.
Positive experience: Clean and oxygenated waters.
Fantastic experience: Wonderful for a stroll
Fantastic experience: Very nice place. Excellent beaches and for fishing.
Fantastic experience: Very wild, no services, a nature beach
Positive experience: There should be more snacks, pizzeria, etc. on the same avenue to have more atmosphere
Fantastic experience: It is an excellent beach, there is a pier where people usually fish, there is also an observation point from which you can see the sea and the views are amazing. Recommended
Positive experience: It still retains that mysterious charm of the Canary Islands. I saw it on a December day. The houses on the beach are old but with character.

Positive experience: It was a beautiful day with little wind, it's worth it!

Fantastic experience: I love it, specially for fishing
Fantastic experience: A quiet beach, even when is beside the airport you cannot ear any noise from there.
Negative experience: I visited Playa Del Burrero with my two children in February 2018. We spent only a short time on the rocky beach as the weather wasn’t great. The beach isn’t wonderful although there were cute little houses in the cliffs which intrigued the children. We had a little wonder around the town, other than a few cool wall murals there is very little to see. We did have a delicious pizza at the pizzeria there, frequented by only locals on this day. We drove to the top of the hill to have a look at the airport run way.
Fantastic experience: It is a beautiful scenery with an amazing sense of relaxation. I found it to be an amazing Christmas Vacation for myself. Amazing place to unwind and would go back in a heartbeat!!
