Beach overall scores
Roque Del Moro (Las Palmas) region (Jandia sub-region) is located outside the Cofete 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 Fuerteventura, 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 views on the way to the beach are breathtaking. However, I'd advise against driving down the road indicated; instead, it would be better to park on the side and walk. It might take longer, but it's worth it to avoid getting stuck on the road, which is full of rocks and potholes."
Chriselle
"A great spot for some amazing ocean views! You can climb up to the rock and explore the area for a truly secluded experience. I highly recommend it over Covefe - it's definitely worth the visit!"
