La Palma plajları

Beautiful Sandy Beaches

La Palma’s coastline is defined by its volcanic origins, featuring a selection of black sand beaches and secluded coves. This collection includes the expansive shores of Puerto Naos and the dramatic cliffside setting of Playa de Nogales in the north. Further south, the coves of Fuencaliente, such as La Zamora, offer clear waters adjacent to volcanic landscapes, while Malpique serves as a primary site for shore diving and underwater exploration.
