Caleta del Congrio
Secluded golden-sand cove with crystal-clear water in Los Ajaches, the furthest of the Papagayo group.
Caleta del Congrio is one of the most tucked-away coves of the Los Ajaches natural monument. Golden sand, clear water and shelter from the swell make it a calm, uncrowded spot, traditionally used by campers and bathers looking for quiet. There is no natural shade and no services.
Access is along a dirt track from Playa Blanca, inside the zone with an entry control and parking fee (usually card only). Check your hire-car insurance, as it often excludes unpaved roads. Bring water, food and everything you need, because there is nothing at the cove.
Did you know? It is part of the Papagayo cluster of coves and was traditionally a nudist beach, a custom still practised naturally there today.

Playa de Puntalarga
Playa de Puntalarga is a small bay on the coastline of Fuencaliente de La Palma, about a hundred metres long and twenty metres wide, with a mix of sand and callao pebbles. Small rocky outcrops shelter it from the sea and the swell stays moderate. A natural rock pool lies right beside the beach, and the whole corner is ringed by fishermen's huts, with fishermen often at work there.
