Beach of El Risco

Playa del Risco

In the Risco neighborhood you will find this wild beach of sand and pebbles. Access to the beach is to the left of the road before entering the Risco neighborhood and driving in the direction of La Aldea de San Nicolás. We arrive at a large parking lot, the beach is approximately 400 meters wide and there is only sand on the west side. In the center of the beach there is an area of Canary Juniper where you can shelter from the sun. It is a quiet place with few people, ideal for relaxing.

You have to be careful with the waves and the currents, especially in the western part of the beach since the currents can be strong, the change of tide can drag a lot of water to that area of the beach, so we recommend caution.
