The beach was far from ideal - a dirty, rocky shoreline in a heavily commercialized area. It's not somewhere I'd ever want to visit again.

This secluded beach in La Herradura is an ideal spot for those looking for a tranquil escape. The shoreline is beautiful and offers stunning views, but unfortunately there isn't a lot of shade.

Visiting my dad, there were plenty of places to explore, eat, and grab a drink. It was safe for kids to be running around and there was lots of activity at the beach. There was also a great kids' play area.

This spot was absolutely wonderful! The water was so clear and peaceful when we visited and my son even managed to spot an octopus amongst the rocks! We had a great day and would definitely recommend it to others. The only thing to be aware of is the car parking and the situation to get there. You need to get there early to guarantee a space in the car park which is a km away and costs €1. But there is a shuttle bus which is convenient and reasonably priced at €1.50 per person return. Other than that, this beach is a great place to visit. It's worth noting that you'll need some rock shoes to get around the beach, but that's standard for the area. Highly recommended!
