Beach overall scores
Playa de los Morteros (Santa Cruz de Tenerife) region (Costa Adeje sub-region) is located outside the Miraverde 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 Tenerife, 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
"This spot is a great for a stroll. Along the way, you'll pass a small hippy commune, which I was initially a bit apprehensive about, but the people there keep to themselves. There's also a shack-style bar, and you can get a massage or purchase creative art painted on stones from a delightful young woman."
Johnathan Smith
"Absolutely stunning, and it's a bit of a trek to get there - it's a 10 minute walk from La Caleta, and the terrain is a bit rough. But the effort is totally worth it - the views are simply breathtaking, and the water is unbelievably beautiful."
