Fantastic experience: Świetne plaże, super miejsce na wypady do pobliskuch atrakcji.

Fantastic experience: Na Fuerteventura nejsou pláže s černým pískem tolik běžné, tahle je rozhodně tímto zajímavá. Zaparkovali jsme v přilehlém městečku. Pláž je jako všechny na ostrově klidná bez velkého množství turistů. Samozřejmě i tady jsou velké vlny a pozvolný přístup do oceánu.

Fantastic experience: Makkelijk te bereiken strand. Geel zand. Makkelijk parkeren. Het strand is lang en makkelijk beloopbaar. Zwemmen ook mogelijk, langer ondiep water.

Positive experience: Playa de Tarajalejo, la playa urbana de arena gruesa y oscura bañada por aguas cristalinas. SI no fuera por la cueva al lado y el paseo con las esculturas (cortito) es una playa bastante prescindible teniendo en cuenta las maravillosas playas de la isla. Por lo visto hay una zona donde aparcar autocaravanas cerca.

Fantastic experience: Delicious quiet beach away from the tourist crowd. Black sand, therefore volcanic, but really delightful.

Positive experience: Wäre schön, wenn die Hundebesitzer die Häufchen im Sand aufsammeln würden!! Ansonsten ein schöner, schwarzer Strand. Müll liegt zu Glück nicht herum. Zum Baden sollte man Wasserschuhe tragen, da sehr steinig. Ruhig gelegen, aber windig.

Fantastic experience: Superb black sand beach and little sun, it sparkles beautifully and there is a small rocky corner for adventurers, but be careful, it is slippery.

Fantastic experience: Quiet and beautiful black sand beach to spend a pleasant time. There is a small walkway behind where you can find a cat or two to pet.

Fantastic experience: Quiet beach with black sand and close to a supermarket and restaurants. Go to the ADEYU restaurant which offers everything from hamburgers and pizzas to a good selection of homemade food.

Fantastic experience: Off the beaten tourist path, a quiet beach... an opportunity for a meal in one of the restaurants with an ocean view. Convenient... presence of beach showers.

Positive experience: 26 years ago, there was still the Tofio Hotel. Today, a new 5-star bunker stands there, alongside a facility that is empty and decaying. The promenade is quite nice but also aged. Unfortunately, no one seems to be doing anything there anymore. I can't say if the restaurant La Baracca still exists by the port. In any case, one could eat very well there with a great view of the sea.

Positive experience: Esta playa, contrariamente a otras situadas en el sur de la isla de Fuerteventura, no es de arena blanca, sino gris. Aún así creo que es una buena playa de pueblo, amplia, perfecta para tomar el sol o practicar deporte. Además así evitarás la masificación de otras playas más turísticas. Tiene algunos chiringuitos y bares alrededor para tomarte unas cañas, refrescos o comer algo. Recomendable!

Positive experience: Grande plage de sable noir dans un village très calme. De nombreux emplacements pour se garer et une jetée très large, agréable à parcourir avant d'arriver d'un côté au village et de l'autre dans les falaises que l'on parcoure facilement avec les petits sentiers tracés. La jetée est équipée de matériels sportifs pour les amateurs de running. De beaux petits restaurants sont à réserver pour profiter des terrasses. Pour les baignades, faudra attendre que le vent se repose.

Positive experience: Magnífica playa de arena marrón oscura, grande espaciosa poca frecuentada lo que hace que el relax este asegurado, sus aguas son mansas lo que la hace ideal para llevar a los niños no suele hacer mucho viento ya que es una Ensenada protegida y al abrigo de los vientos en su parte más poblacional dispone de socorristas y servicios y en su lado hacia el sur podemos disfrutar de un Paraje Natural inalterado.

Positive experience: The beach is photogenic but you have to go all the way to swim because otherwise there are many pebbles and rocks...

Fantastic experience: Black beach of volcanic origin. It remains hot all day until evening, beautiful sea. Ideal for trekking as there are paths on the promontory that allow you to climb the cliffs and follow the scenic ridge. No tourists, only locals.

Fantastic experience: I was on Fuerteventura 41 years ago, in spring 1981. And I am amazed at how everything has changed. Back then, I only visited the beach once and just lounged by the pool.

Positive experience: Wide beach with gray to black sand and some stones. At the back, there is a wide promenade with benches along it. Since there are only a few hotels and holiday apartments nearby, it is very quiet at this beautiful beach. Some sculptures adorn the promenade. The beach and the promenade are very clean. Unfortunately, the only public toilets are closed.

Negative experience: Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this at all. The beach is not maintained, not even by the only hotel here. The promenade is in disrepair, there are no toilets and the construction ruin is completely unsecured. A bush group serves as a public toilet.
