Vallehermoso Beach

A beach with swimming pools

Located in the municipality of Vallehermoso, just 3 kilometres from the city centre, this black sand and pebble beach is a tourist favourite. The water temperature is around 20 degrees almost all year round. A maritime park is also local. It has a swimming pool and a restaurant that’s open 365 days of the year.

Walk to Vallehermoso

If you visit the maritime park in summer, you’ll probably be able to catch a local musical performance. Playa de Vallehermoso is just five minutes by car from Vallehermoso (or 30 minutes on foot). So this is a great place to combine a beach day with a walk around a charming Canary Islands town.

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.
