Playa de Charco Verde
A small black-sand bay between volcanic headlands on the west coast, with calm water, lifeguards and facilities, and good sunset views.
Playa de Charco Verde lies south of Puerto Naos, enclosed by black lava headlands. The beach is small but sheltered from the wind, and in summer there are lifeguards and showers. During the 2021 eruption the area was closed for a long period due to volcanic gases, and it gradually reopened after 2023, so check local notices before you go. It can be visited together with Puerto Naos beach and the new lava coastline.
