  • The average distance from the road to beach in La Gomera is less than 500 meters. 15 beaches are relatively easy to access, 7 beaches are difficult to access, which in most cases means that you have to walk a quite long distance, and 2 beaches are only accessible from the water.

Latest reviews on La Gomera's beaches

Playa de Vallehermoso
6 Liam

Stony Beach was a letdown. The swimming pool was closed, leaving nothing to do but sit and stare at the sea. It was a waste of time and money, and I wouldn't recommend it.

Playa de El Cabrito
6 Mikaelaheat

This stunning spot is accessible by boat or on foot via Etapa 8 of the GR132 route of the island. It's a terrific idea to book a stay at the hotel to enjoy the many entertaining activities available. This secluded and special area of the island is surrounded by a wonderful natural park.

Playa San Sebastian
8 Pauline

This tranquil beach with its renowned black sands is the perfect spot for a peaceful getaway. Even on a weekend, there is hardly anyone around, making it a great spot to relax and take in the views. Plus, it's easy to get to - just a 20 minute walk from San Sebastian port! If you're looking for a quick escape when in town, this beach is definitely worth a visit.

Playa De Vueltas
10 Lena K

We had a wonderful time at the beach. We were even lucky enough to spot a manta ray!

Playa del ingles
6 Benjamin Schulman

That place is far from the paradise of Playa del Ingles. It's a desolate stretch of shoreline with nothing but a few villages nearby. Don't expect a luxurious holiday here - you'd be better off finding somewhere else to spend your time!

Playa de la Caleta
6 Valerian

Playa de la Caleta has all the amenities you could need, but the waves and large boulders make it a bit too wild for swimming. The views of Tenwriy and Teide are great, but the sea is often too choppy. Access is not too difficult, but the 4 km of winding roads with plenty of inclines can be a bit of a challenge. Toilet facilities are clean, though the beach bar is closed. There's also a recreational area with tables and chairs, as well as a hermitage. All in all, it's a great spot for sightseeing, but not ideal for swimming.

Finding hotels in relative proximity to the beaches is usually fine. Many beaches have enough nearby accommodation, which gives good opportunities to choose the right place to stay.

The hottest month of the island is September - air temperature during this time warms up to 24.1°C and water up to 24.3°C. The coldest month is January - air temperature drops to 19.4°C and water to 20.2°C.
