Piscina Natural de Punta del Hidalgo
Seawater pool with views of Teide and the Roque de Dos Hermanos in Punta del Hidalgo.
At the northern tip of the La Laguna municipality, Punta del Hidalgo is one of the most distinctive bathing corners of this rugged coast, with the Anaga massif behind you and, on clear days, Teide rising in the distance. The seawater pool has some depth and offers lifeguards, showers and adapted access. The volcanic scenery and open sea make for a swim with real character; check the sea state and tides before getting in, as the northern Atlantic swell can be strong.

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.
