Atarfe bedste strande

The beach was far from ideal - a dirty, rocky shoreline in a heavily commercialized area. It's not somewhere I'd ever want to visit again.

Forfriskende service i Spanien var enestående. Øl var prissat til 2,20 stykket. En enkelt lille tapa af blandede nødder blev leveret. Placeringen var lige ved stranden. Vi prøvede ikke nogen af ​​madtilbuddene.

This spot was really nice and clean, with pebbles and crystal clear water. Even though the car park was full, there were plenty of other places to park just off the road at the top. There was a minibus that could take you down and back for a small fee, or you could walk which took us 18 minutes at a slow pace. Coming back took us exactly 30 minutes, and we were carrying a small tent and beach stuff. We ate at the far side restaurant which was good. Best of all, the beach has public free entry, so you don't have to worry about paying for entry. Unfortunately, there are no public facilities such as showers or toilets, but all in all, it was a nice quiet day.

I had an extremely negative experience at the beach. After a long night trip, I arrived to find it was a complete disaster. The area I saw was only 200-300 meters of Camping Playa de Poniente, but it was enough for me to decide I never wanted to go back. The sand was not sand at all, but more like clay, grey and completely unappealing. It was littered with broken glass and cigarette ends, as if there had been a wild party the night before. The air was misty, and everything clung to you, making you feel dirty even after a shower. The landscape was flat and unappealing, and although the mountains were nearby, it still gave off an unhealthy feeling. I had chosen this area because I had heard it was undeveloped, but I was not prepared for the mess I encountered.

Playa Barranco de Enmedio is easily accessible and located down an unpaved road. The cove is full of thick stones, so it's important to bring water shoes to protect your feet from the waves. I love the sound of the stones and the beach is great for snorkeling. I've had the misfortune of being stung by jellyfish more than half the times I've visited, but that might just be a coincidence. There's a beach bar nearby with delicious fish and rice dishes, and the portions are a bit smaller than other places, but the service is always friendly.

Ihana paikka!
