Tacoronte - all beaches

One of my top beach picks in Tenerife. Watching the sun setting here is a truly remarkable experience - you can also admire the grandeur of Teide and how it gets enveloped by the clouds. A must-see when visiting Tenerife!

This location was incredible - the dark sand and lack of tourists made it a truly special experience. Getting there was an adventure in itself, since the road was quite challenging to navigate with a car. Nevertheless, we had a great time!

This place provides an excellent opportunity for snorkelling, with two entrances on the sides which are ideal for children to stay safe from the waves. The main stairs lead to deeper water, and sunbeds are available for 5 EUR for the day. There is plenty of room to soak up the sun, and a free library located next to the playground on the street which allows visitors to borrow a book. Free parking is available on the street, although there are no restrooms and the showers are not in service.

This beach, which seems to mainly serve as a home for the homeless (judging by the presence of tents), has the potential to be a hidden gem in the city. However, regrettably, it appears that nobody pays much attention to this place.

This tranquil beach is the perfect place to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. With limited people around, it's the perfect spot for a laid-back day. The parking lot is ample, however, the only downside is that there are no public restrooms. Sadly, the small bar that used to be around has shut down.

Not an easy place to get to - the steep cliffs act as a barrier, making it difficult to get down to the ocean. Climbing without experience or local guidance is not recommended. Even if you can't get down to the beach, the view from the top of the cliffs is still stunning. It feels like being in another world, but getting to the beach is a challenge.
