Playa de la Tejita
#4 of 23 Beaches in TenerifeSummary about Playa de la Tejita
Playa de la Tejita, a captivating beach on Tenerife's coast, offers a spacious and relatively secluded environment, making it an appealing choice for those seeking tranquillity. The beach's defining feature is its striking black volcanic sand, set against the dramatic backdrop of Red Mountain, providing a scenic and unique beach experience. The beach is celebrated for its ample space and flat access from the car park, though it's worth noting that the terrain may not be suitable for wheelchairs or scooters. Visitors should know that the beach is known for its nudist-friendly areas, particularly towards the mountain end, where beachgoers embrace the freedom of naturism. The presence of a sunbed attendant and the availability of parasols and sunbeds for hire add an element of comfort. However, the absence of onsite toilets and shops necessitates a degree of planning, with visitors advised to bring necessary supplies. While the beach's expansive nature ensures it never feels overcrowded, the lack of toilets and showers may be a drawback for some. However, the nearby mall and commercial centre provide a convenient solution, offering a selection of restaurants, a supermarket, and toilet facilities in the restaurant area, ensuring that essential needs are met. The beach's location, close to popular areas like Golf del Sur, makes it an easy addition to any itinerary, with the bonus of cheap car parking and easy access. However, it's essential to be prepared for the beach's windy conditions, which can intensify the experience of the sand and may affect visibility on particularly breezy days. Playa de la Tejita's beauty is undeniable, offering a mix of natural ruggedness, scenic views, and a serene atmosphere, less affected by the hustle and bustle of tourist-heavy areas. For those looking to embrace the unique charm of Tenerife's coastline, enjoy transparent and refreshing waters, and explore the liberating experience of a nudist beach, Playa de la Tejita is a compelling choice, promising a memorable beach experience with a touch of adventure.Places to visit near Playa de la Tejita
