Piscinas de La Fajana
6 Nathaniel Wilcox

This place was far from ideal. The sunbathing area had a nice view of the sea, but the changing rooms were very basic and not particularly clean. I decided to go for a swim in December, and the water was freezing when I first got in, though it was bearable after a while. If you stood still for a minute, you'd get the same fish spa experience as in Thailand, which is a really strange feeling. Goggles or a snorkel might be worth it, if you want to see the colourful fish in the pools. I swam in the middle-sized pool first and enjoyed it, so I decided to try out the biggest one. As I got there, I noticed a young Spanish lady getting ready to go in. When I got closer, she took off all her clothes and joined me in the pool. Given the age difference between us, it was an uncomfortable experience.
