"Playa de Janubio is a great place to explore, with its volcanic black sand and rocky areas. The tides are quite strong, making it a perfect spot for a stroll. It should be noted that this is a clothing-optional beach, which may or may not be an issue for some visitors. Despite being a nature conservation site, there weren't many birds around."

"The beach has a pleasant atmosphere, and its sand is of volcanic origin."
