There are beautiful beaches everywhere, just ask the people of Tenerife, where you can find beautiful beaches such as Bollullo, a small black sand beach with cliffs facing north.
What for many is one of the best beaches in Tenerife is located in the municipality of La Orotava, very close to El Puerto de la Cruz. Do you want to know more about El Bollullo? Then don’t miss anything we tell you below! We assure you that you’re going to love it!
Ideal for surf lovers
One of the main characteristics of Bollullo beach is that it has fine black volcanic sand, although it is true that this is a fairly common peculiarity in Tenerife and the rest of the Canary Islands. Although it is suitable for bathing, it generally has large waves, which makes it ideal for surf lovers. However, if you want to take a dip, remember to always do so close to the foam and if the flag allows it.
Virtually unspoilt
Bollullo is 400 metres long and, as you can see in the images in the gallery, it is not surrounded by buildings. In fact, there is only a small beach bar on the sand and some bars on the top of the cliff. Therefore, we can speak of a practically virgin beach.
The sanctuary with crosses
One of the peculiarities of this beach is that on the path leading to the sand there is a small sanctuary where wooden crosses have been placed, made of wood extracted from the tarajales that populate the area. Here we leave you with our gallery, where we offer you more beautiful images of Bollullo. Don’t miss it!
