Playa de Vueltas
Black-sand beach sheltered by the port of Vueltas, with calm waters; good for swimming and snorkelling.
Next to the port of Vueltas, in Valle Gran Rey, this black-sand beach is sheltered by the pier, making it one of the calmest in the valley. It is a good place to swim, snorkel or board the whale- and dolphin-watching trips that leave from the harbour. A serene atmosphere, calm sea and everything close by: a safe choice when the wind picks up or the more open beaches get rough.

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.
