El Águila Beach

Rocks and crystal clear waters in the east of La Gomera

This beach, located very close to the Puntallana viewpoint, is on the border of the municipalities of Hermigua and San Sebastián de La Gomera. At 650 metres long and 30 metres wide, it’s one of the longest beaches in the area. Its a rocky place which makes access unsuitable for those with reduced mobility.

A dirt road by the sea

To access the Águila beach, you can follow a dirt road that starts from the Puntallana viewpoint. You can travel with your own vehicle, as long as it is a 4x4. There is also the option of doing the journey on foot. Only 1,500 metres separate the viewpoint from the beach.

  • 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.
