☆ Bollullo

A wild black sandy beach with exciting waves

TYPOLOGY: black sand
ACCESS: walking
SERVICES:  beach bar, paid parking
BEST TIME TO VISIT: summer

Placed in a magic enclave, the beach of El Bollullo is one of the only three beaches that belongs to the municipality of La Orotava. The road leading to it is a little narrow and you have to be patient because sometimes you have to maneuver to let cars pass in the opposite direction. At the end of the road you can leave the car in a guarded parking that usually costs 3 € and is open until 8 pm. But the hassle and the money are worth it. Along with the Ancon and Los Patos, El Bollullo is a beach of exceptional beauty, ideal for lovers of wild nature. No wonder we put a star next to the name, as it is one of our favorite beaches ;-)

You will also find a beach bar where you can have a fresh beer or something to eat.

However, be particularly cautious with the waves and currents since they can sometimes be stronger than they seem.
