Best Tenerife beach – Playa Fanabe

He and the beach of El Duke located behind him attract a lot of tourists from Scandinavian countries, Germany and Great Britain to its golden sand.

The large size of the beach will accommodate hundreds of holidaymakers here, and several breakwaters will protect themselves from the power of the ocean. In good weather it’s nice to be here, but when a strong wind blows, it’s impossible to swim in the Atlantic, because of the stormy waves breaking through the stone barriers. The entrance to the water is not very convenient, because of the stones lying on the bottom. On the shore you will find shops and a beautiful promenade.

Review of Playa Jardin (black sand beach in Tenerife)

The Jardin beach is located in the city of Puerto de la Cruz in the north of Tenerife island.

Part of the beach, adjacent to the shore, is buried in the greenery of coconut palms, and on the east side there is a huge pier, from which you can see the whole beach, as well as the Teide volcano, towering above the island (in good weather). Playa jardin is a beach with black volcanic sand, which, having dried on the body, easily leaves it. Bathe in the water area of ​​the beach can be long, but the entrance to the water is hampered by large pebbles and volcanic stones. When the wind blows, the waves crash on the shore, and it’s not easy to go into the water. On the territory of Jardin beach you can enjoy relaxing in a deck chair. Here you can also grab a snack in the café and rent a surfboard, because some of the beach is suitable for practicing this sport.
