Playa de la Negra (Santa Cruz de Tenerife) is located outside the La Dama settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the coast of the La Gomera, but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.

User reviews

"The beach offers a rugged and untamed mooring experience, with the bottom holding up impressively well."

Kim Tae-hyun

"After reading the reviews, it's disheartening to see that humans are the root cause of destroying our planet and nature. It's unfortunate that some people give low ratings to beaches that don't have roads, shops, or Starbucks. What's wrong with enjoying the simplicity of nature? Instead of filling our pockets with money and seeking comfort in places like Monaco and London, w..."

Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Playa de la Negra (La Gomera) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Playa de la Negra (La Gomera) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Playa de la Negra for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
