Is Playa de la Monta\u00f1a Roja worth it?<\/h2>\n\n

Yes, it’s a beautiful beach and well worth a visit. This wild beach won us over with its exceptional natural setting and unique location at the foot of Monta\u00f1a Roja. We particularly appreciated the authenticity of the site, which retains its natural character while offering essential facilities. The surrounding volcanic landscape creates a unique atmosphere that sets this beach apart from the rest of the island’s tourist beaches.<\/p>\n\n

The beach floor is made up of coarse black sand and chunks of volcanic rock. The beach extends over a considerable length and width, offering generous space for stretching out and sunbathing in complete tranquillity.<\/p>\n\n

Swimming conditions and supervision<\/h3>\n\n

Swimming conditions are excellent, with a gentle, gradual slope making it easy to enter the water. The beach also offers excellent snorkeling opportunities along the Monta\u00f1a Roja, where rock formations create an interesting marine environment. What’s more, the beach is supervised in high season.<\/p>\n\n

Installations<\/h3>\n\n

Despite its wild, unspoilt setting, the beach offers deckchair hire for your comfort. We noticed that there is no natural shade, which makes renting umbrellas particularly useful too. However, we didn’t see any showers or toilets on site.<\/p>\n\n
