El Veril

A beach with two bays

Divided into two bays by a breakwater, this beach has soft, dark sand and transparent waters with many services available. It’s quieter and has lusher vegetation than Playa del Inglés, the neighbouring beach.

Services and accessibility

At the end of the second bay you can find all the services of an urban beach. These include showers, toilets, and a small kiosk to buy supplies. For early risers, there is the option of renting a sunbed, although you have to get there quick because they’re usually in high demand. For people with reduced mobility, an access ramp is available.

Sustainability

- Never leave waste of any type lying around, including cigarette butts. Leftover food leads to a proliferation of rats and wild cats.
- Do not throw any waste or other objects into the sea.
- Respect the animals. Do not bother them or feed them. If you see an injured specimen, you can call the emergency number: 112. Do not pick flowers or plants from the environment.
- Do not pick up or take away stones or any other item from the natural environment. And do not move them to pile them up into sadly famous 'towers'.
- Do not use soap or gel in the showers located at the entrance to the beach.
- Try to use ocean- friendly sun creams.
- Pets are prohibited at most beaches. Make sure you can take them beforehand.
- Try not to alter the peace of the environment with excessive noise (loud music, yelling, etc.) or activities that might be bothersome, such as ball games.
